How many are you making or buying for your ceremony?? I'm having mine at my church, and we're inviting about 150 people, but i know most probably don't go to the church. We both have big families too.... ughh i don't know how many to make!

yeah, that's what i'm thinking, especially since my church is at 3 and the reception is at 730. I was thinking of 50-60 for my list of 150 people
eta: holy crap 300 ppl! hahaha i'm so overwhelmed with 150

I got about 100 bubble tubes. I am only doing the bubbles and a program for the church. I also have about 240 people invited but I have NO clue who is going to the church. I will probably make about 100 or so programs.
Oh also... ring bearer pillow and flower girl basket/petals. I am using my cousins pillow from her wedding.. so I guess maybe another 30.00 for the basket and petals?

106 people were invited to the wedding. 35 showed up at church.
The florist gave me a basket of rose petals that everyone just grabbed a handful of and I made 50 bags of the heart shapped 'throwing candy' and it was more then enough!!

we are doing bubbles and we only bought 2 boxes of 24 from TheKnot.com. Not everyone is going to take them.
ETA: bubbles by the way

I am not doing bubbles or petals. I made about 120 ribbon wands to be waved when we exit the church. We are inviting around 150-160 people...

We are getting married at the RH, so I would think most of the people that are coming would be there, (inviting around 240 people) I bought 100 bubbles from theknot.com I didnt think everyone would take them.. we'll see

I got a box of 100 bubble wand things from Michaels and used a 50% coupon, it came to $10. I figured if there aren't 100 people the kids can take the extra.

......... Cant use ANYTHING that hits the floor......
So perhaps the ribbon bands or releason of ballons... i think only 20-40% of the WHOLE guest list go to the Ceremony,....

oh man i hadn't thought about that.... with the 20% that supposedly don't come then i would be looking at 180 guests ... is it better to get 150 and assume some people won't use them or go to 200?
