Re: Guest list

I asked my SIL if you tell your RH 110 how many do you really invite ? she said to invite 200 so that mean I am getting 90 NO's? Seem unreal- But never the less my list is like 140 right now

Re: Guest list

right now we are around 170 right now but with a handful of people that we will cut if need be. We would really like the final number to be around 130-135 (140 max)

you're supposed to assume that 20% of the people will rsvp as no ...so if you invite about 140, you should be ok ... of course, if you're inviting a lot of OOT people, you might have more than 20% no's ... i'd invite about 160-175 to be safe

Re: Guest list

thats a main reason why we waited 2 years one year to pay off a wedding another year to save for a down payment.. which just seems like it never will happen!!!! fingers crossed!

Re: Guest list

so far we are at about 130. Cause my FH is from Barbados so unfortunately many of his family and friends will not be able to attend. I really do not want to go over 150

For 110 I would invite 140. 200 is going to give you 160 guests!

Re: Guest list

Our guest list is 115 but our room only holds 100 so we definately need 20% to say no

Re: Guest list

i have close to 100. My minimum is 100. I have the opposite problem in that both mine and FH's families are very small. If alot people don't bring dates we may be under the minimum!
