Re: Minimum and invite #

I would say to invite about 200.
Our minimum is 125 and our invite list is probably around 160ish.

Re: Minimum and invite #

Our min is 100 and i think we are inviting 150. Wedding professionals estimate that 20% of those invited do not attend. (at least that is what our banquet manager said)

Re: Minimum and invite #

our minimum is 100, inviting around 145.

They say you can expect around 20% rejection, higher if you have a lot of OOT guests coming in.

If your min is 150, I would say invite around 200, with the 20% anticipated rejection you would wind up with around 160 people

Re: Minimum and invite #

i wuold invite 200 at least. i've heard more and more girls' minimums not being met as well due to more people saying no b/c of the economy the way it is right now.... so i would rather be safe! I myself have a 125 min and i have 160 on the guest list so far but i'd like to invite more just in case.
