    Ours is going to be small to average. 2 bridesmaids and my almost 21 year old niece wanted to be the flower girl (lol) and 3 groomsmen. About 100 total people in the guest list.

    BIG! We have 6 bridesmaids, 6 groomsmen, 2 flower girls (possibly 4), and a ring bearer!

    We have 250 guests, and over half of that is family haha.

    I think we'd be considered medium. We're having 2 bridesmaid, 2 groomsmen, flower girl and ring bearer and hoping only about 100 people show-up to the wedding.

    We had envisioned a medium size guest list when we first got engaged. Then we made our lists and realized we’re looking at a guest list of 200 people to invite! Our bridal party will be 4 bridesmaids with 1 junior bridesmaid and 4 groomsman.

    Having a small wedding, about 65 people total. 4 bridesmaids & 4 groomsmen.

    The style is "us".

    We love the fall so it's a fall wedding, however my flower colors are not fall at all. Bright yellow and pink... but our actual color palette for the wedding is ivory, Juniper, pale pink & pale yellow.

    My bridesmaids dresses are all in Juniper and long with different style tops.

    My dress is by no means plain, very me.
    Most of my accessories are sparkly, other than my veil I'm planning to be plain.
    The guys are wearing khaki colored vests, dark blue jeans, white button up shirts with the sleeves rolled up and juniper ties. The groom will be in a cream colored vest.

    We will have ivory table linens and burlap or light pink lace runners with floral centerpieces of pink and yellow (I think, haven't decided on this yet) .

    Wedding and reception both are outdoors with lots of oak trees and pretty green grass and right beside us is my FILs 100 year old home.

    Were having BBQ Ribs, Pulled Pork and Pork chops catered with several sides.

    Probably nothing will go together but I do but care. I've hand picked every thing and I love it all.

    To me, it seems small, but to some people it’d be big! We’re planning on having between 150-200 attendees (including the bridal party). Our wedding party will have 7 bridesmaids, 7 groomsmen, 4 ringbearers, and 1 flower girl. Both of my brothers had over 300 people at their weddings so that’s why mine seems small! I originally wanted a huge wedding like that, but our venue won’t hold that many.
