 That's true, although I'm not sure why you would invite someone you didn't want to come or had room for in the first place. When we were planning, we had room for everyone people we invited, just in case they wanted to travel to the wedding.  It turned out that a couple of family members from California were able to make the trip.  
I don't think you can ever predict who will show up; I had a friend who was an hour away who couldn't come, but relatives from cross-country who made the trip.  Anytime you try to predict those things, something will change.
