How many of your brides have

under 150 guests for your wedding? I hope that isn't too little. It won't look cheesey right? I have about 140, am I a loser

Re: How many of your brides have

LOL thats fine. I hope to have no more than 150. My cousin had like 120 at the Thatched Cottage. Just make sure they spread the tables out. For her they bunched them all around the dance floor and crammed like 12 per table.. it was squishy and it left all this empty space by the bar.. which was weird to look at while knocking elbows with the next table.

I'm just afraid of the cocktail hour, if the weather is nice 1/2 will be in 1/2 will be out, I don't want it to look like no one is there. I am trying to picture in my head how much 100 people look like

Re: How many of your brides have

Re: How many of your brides have

I'll have more, but I hope not many more than 150 since thats what we have to guarentee. But i dont think it would look cheesy if there are less than 150, especially if its in a small room. If its in a huge ballroom, it may look a lil sparse, but in a smaller room, it'll look like you have more than 150.

Re: How many of your brides have

Re: How many of your brides have

I'm hoping for around 150 - which is still way bigger than I wanted. You're not a loser, personally I prefer smaller weddings.

Re: How many of your brides have

Not at all!!! I am inviting 160 and that is including the dj, video and photographer! I am hoping I bring in 125!!! But we wanted a smaller wedding so we cut it down, but that is a perfect sized wedding!! No losers here!!

Re: How many of your brides have

we had 13 tables and they ranged from 7-10 people per table, our hall wasnt huge but they spread out the tables and you couldnt even tell that the hall held 200 people, it was great

i will see if i can find a pic for you

Re: How many of your brides have

I really don't want to have more than 100 because that is all we can afford since we are paying for everything ourselves

Re: How many of your brides have

I have more than that but I wish I had less. I originally only wanted 100 people....so you aren't a loser...you're having an intimate gathering.

to be honest with you I think you will be so occupied that day you aren't going to even be concerened what amount of people are filling up space.... my sister had 85 people and it was such a nice intimate affair- it didn't look empty
