Ok so generally, the saying goes that about 20% (i think?) or so of those invited won't attend the wedding. This is SUCH a dumb question, but is there a similar formula for the church. Trying to figure out if i made enough flower petal cones. My church is in brooklyn and the RH is on the island, so the church attendance i doubt will be very high. I have 220 people rsvp yes and I made 50 cones. I wanted to make 75, but i am running out of time.

I would think that a lot more than 20% (abotu 50 people/petal cones) of your guests will be going to the church.... i would think that most everyone goes to the church...well, that has also been the case in my family.... i would say make the 75 if you can, otherwise, don't stress it. 50 petal cones is more than enoguh to give you the effect that you want.... i don't think people will be upset if they dont' get one.

Your wedding is at 2:20pm. It must be on a Sat or Sun. so I would assume 70% of the people who RSVP'd yes will show. If you are incomfortable with the 50 then I say make as many more as you possibly can- even if it's only 5 more and call it a day. People will share if they have to. I'm sure it won't be a problem.
