“This is like how much you want them at the wedding, so how important it is to you that they come,” O’Malley clarified of the bride and groom’s personal scores. The four categories were then totaled for an overall score, with the highest total being 40. Afterward, each guest is given a final letter grade that determines whether or not they will be sent a wedding invitation.
“We have then used an if/then statement to deduce what grade they shall receive,” O’Malley said. “As and Bs, you’re coming! Cs, we don’t know yet but based on numbers and how much this bloody thing is going to cost. And guess what, if we don’t like ya — see all you guys (Fs), we don’t know your names, but you’re not coming to our wedding!”
“Insane but practical,” O’Neill wrote in the caption.

Many commenters begged for a template of the spreadsheet so that they could use it too.
“If you sell this template then the wedding will pay for itself 🤩🤩,” a comment with more than 60,000 likes reads.
Ask, and you shall receive! An updated wedding guest scoring system spreadsheet entitled “Don’t Give a Sheet” is available for purchase on Shopify because they “broke Etsy.” Now, maybe O’Malley and O’Neill will be able to afford to invite some more Cs and Ds.
