that they won't make their minimum for the reception hall? We didn't invite too many people over the minimum amount because we're on a budget and trying to keep things small, but the rsvps are coming in so slowly, i'm starting to get nervous....

Definately! We have a 175 min. including us and I'm already trying to estimate if we'll make it even though we're inviting almost 225 people. Just stay positive and think of your favorite wedding things, like your dress.

I only guaranteed 75. buy the no replies I have gotten have been unexpected - so I already dug into my reserves and sent out 2 more invites. I plan on sending out 'b' list as I get the 'no' responses!

I worry about it a little bit, but I dont worry too much. Its really one of those things that oyu dont have much control over, it is what it is-it stinks but still

Re: Is anyone else afraid...

will your rh allow you take the dinners home if you don't make the minimum? A lot of places will give you the dinners that you are paying for. You'll just have a bunch of filet mignon or prime rib in the fridge, but its better than it going to waste.

I made sure I guarenteed a low min. which was 125 but Im not worried about not making the min I worried about going way over. We have too much family and friends.

We're a little nervous, actually. We cut the list so much, we're not sure we've got 85 people now! But we haven't sent out invitations yet, so we can always add people. We need to do it this week, actually, as our invitations are shipping on Monday. Yay! Monday! I can start my dad, who is doing the calligraphy for the envelopes, on the relatives and people we know are being invited.

I'm worried too, we have a 125 minimum but most of our invitation are to out of town people. We sent out invitations to 160 people, but its mothers day weekend so we have no idea how many will come.
