Advice needed re: best man

I don't mind that though. At my wedding there wasn't a single guest present. Not even the photographer. I have no family issues on either side and no reason (like money or time) not to invite people except for the simple fact that I preferred no one be there. It wasn't eloping because everyone was aware and no one objected to the wedding. It was just private. They were sad they couldn't be there but got over it because it's what we wanted. I don't think people should do things they don't want to just to keep people's feelings from being hurt. I know I would understand not being invited. If it makes their wedding more perfect by not inviting me then that's how it should be. I had the most perfect wedding by not allowing guests. We ate the perfect food privately, danced privately, took pictures all around the island privately, I had the dress, bouquet, photographer, everything we wanted. And we still agree the experience wouldn't have been so perfect if we had invited people just to be nice.
