number of people at church

OK ladies I have a question.... When buying & doing things for church how many do you buy for? I dont know how many I should do programs, petal cones and hankies (i like them better then cry packs) for. What is a good approximate number of guests that show up to church?

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Im not sure I would do them when ever because you can always lay them down in a long storage bin so they dont get crushed.

Well, it depends on the day. If it's a weeknight, then 30. A Friday, I'd say around 30-40 and for a weekend, day or night, at least 50. Hope that helps.

i think it depends on how many guests you have. i did 60 of everything for church and not one was left. i probably could have used 75 - maybe 80 of each.

Good ques: for petal cones I would do like 75-100, I am going to try and attempt to make those myself , if you are doing bubbles like 50-75 bottles, bec everyone is going to want to do it so I would make enough or buy enough for all
