I originally wanted a tiny wedding....I'm talking 100 people. Then when we went to the RH, we guaranteed 135 and I was like that's big enough. We aren't even done officially with our list and we are at 178....where did all these people come from? lmao
How about you ladies..when you FIRST started planning, what was that magical number you threw around and where are you at so far?

We guaranteed 150 at the RH, but I figured it's probably be a bit bigger, maybe 175 or 180.
We're still adding to the damn list, and it's close to 300 people! That number includes relatives who are out of the country and we know definitely will not come, but even without them, the number is about 275 or 280.

We guaranteed 80, invited 141 and PRAY we only get 100. I will find out by Feb. 15th the real damage.
FH kept finding people to add - I am so glad I have no friends otherwise we would of been in completely hell right now.

Re: # of guests wanted vs. # you are at so far....
we intentionally booked the smaller of the rooms at our RH b/c we wanted no more than 150 or so...well now that the time has come to think about guests...it is def easy enough to fill up 150...our min is 120 and max 165...so we will more than likely be at our max...it is bound to happen i guess...think of it this way...the more the merrier

We invited 150 and 119 came.....we had to a guarantee of 125.....so we missed on 6 people. BUT the thatched cottage was amazing, and threw in an ice sculpture. So at least it was something.

I said maybe about 100 Then I wrote the guest list out and changed it to 75... I took some people off the list that I didnt feel really needed to come... So we have a minimum of 75 and we are at 75!!!

Our minimum is 175. I really don't want more than 180 but FH says we'll be closer to 200.
same here. we wanted about 150 tops BUT we had to guarantee 175 for the room we wanted.
Mici how many are you inviting to meet your minimum?

I never really had a magical number b/c i knew that FH and I both come from big families.... so my # was always big and is still big!!!
My situation too. We're at about 450 being invited
