I understand that most brides and grooms would have a "B list" in case of regrets but I think that if you are going to invite a family, shouldn't you send invitations to them at the same time?

One of my coworkers did a "B list" where she invited people from the office like 2 weeks before the wedding since she got a poor response to her earlier invites. She's a nice person and all, but it was the tackiest thing I have ever seen.
IMO, you're old enough that she is your friend and obviously your parents don't need to take you to the wedding
- your parents and your sister should have been on the same "tier" if you will. I don't think your sis would be so upset if your parents hadn't been invited in the first round.
I agree with leesek - you invite who you want to come to the wedding WHETHER THEY REALISTICALLY WILL OR NOT. If you don't have room, don't send an invite to cousin Sue in India because you figure she won't come yet you can "include" her - it's trying to have your cake and eat it too. Because if Sue decides to show up and because of her you can't have a friend you REALLY wanted to have, you will be screwed.
