My sims were throwing a wedding. The plan event is nice in many ways, especially with Season's calendar feature. But (especially for weddings) this could have been so much better! The guest list is...

I agree, the guest list needs a huge overhaul. You would think the couple would have already met their significant other's family earlier in the relationship, possibly before the engagement but definitely before the wedding.
If we could just phone each of them, from a phone book option, that would be quite okay, but we actually need to knock on each and everyone's door and then to greet each person, to get them on our contact list. That feels quite old fashioned in a world where a sim's life is more or less organized on their cell phone...
I just don't see why as soon as the couple becomes engaged why their partner's family isn't automatically added to their contacts as acquaintances. That way you wouldn't have to call every individual on the phone. Or the guest list could be tied to your family tree as well as friends list, and like you said earlier, just uncheck the ones you don't want at the wedding.
And while I'm on the subject of family being contacts, that needs to extend to grandparents knowing their grandchildren from birth as well. When a baby is born they should automatically appear in the grandparents, aunts/uncles contacts list. I mean it doesn't have to extend to 4th or 5th cousins but it should extend to aunts/uncles, 1st cousins, and definitely grandparents. Especially if the parents of the new child has a great relationship with them. I think it would add a small detail to the game and make you want to do more generational play.
