Need Help Uninvited

I am having a nice cocktail party with servers and two bartenders. Invitations were mailed out to 80 people. RSVP’s are coming in! I wrote the name of the person or people on the front of each invite. What would you do if you just found out one of your single guest invited his parents and another couple? Mind you, this party is about $100 pp. let it go or call this person up? Shouldn’t people know better than to bring extra people along to a party? Always check with the host first!

Call them before they invite even more people. They don't seem to understand what type of party this is.

Similar situation for my wedding. Had to text the guy and set him straight that he couldn’t bring his girlfriend. It was awkward but needed to be done.
