Confused

I don't know what to do, I have 205 guests(after serious cutting) on my list, am I suppose to look for rooms that accommodate that many people or do I look for rooms that accommodate less assuming I'm going to have some regrets?

I'm afraid that I'll get a room that is too big or vice versa too small

You tell them how many people you are inviting and they help you figure out the percentage that won't come. Hang in there it will all work out.

I would look for a room that can accomodate that many people or less. You don't want to get a room that can accomodate 175 people and then God forbid you have everyone show up, it would be too tight. I invited 175 people and my RSVP date is today and I've only gotten 5 no's so far. So I'm not going to have the typical '20% no rate'. Better to be safe than sorry.

One number you have to be careful of is the 'minimum guarantee'. YOu wouldn't want a room that had a minimum of 200, b/c then you'd have to pay for 200 people whether or not they attend.

That's what I thought.....do you think that a room that holds 300 is too big for the amount I'm inviting? And....my next question...would I meet a minimum for that big of a room?

Sorry.......I'm just so confused.....I loved this place...one room hold 180 and the other 300

Thanks girls

That's one of my issues....why is this so complicated, I just want to get married and have a memorable day at a reasonable price.
