I think it is typically 20% that will say No. Since you have a high guarantee; you can probably invite more than the 20% if you have a lot of OOT guests.

We had to guarantee 130 but our invite list is at 178, which if you follow that rule will leave us with 142. We don't want to go over 150 so that would be fine.

Also has far as the STDs, we sent one to each household that was invited.

We have to guarantee 100, but our invite list is now at 171 and growing. We have a lot of OOT, so I'm hoping we'll have a much higher % of no's.

ugh I'm dreading this. My FMILis so vague about addresses and FH is so laid back about getting any. Plus his list was stupid and I cut it to half. yes...half.

Id say 20% is fair and def only do one per household.

also, don't send to coworkers. people come and go and you don't want to feel obligated to invite someone who you no longer see...or, no longer LIKE in your office.

ITA. We sent one to each household of family and friends, but did not send any to our co-workers.
