    By our standards we were going to have a big wedding of 150-160 people but COVID decided to ruin our plans for a second time (postponed one year) so we have downsized to 45. Currently our government is only allowing weddings with a maximum of 11 people (including the bride, groom, celebrant, one photographer and two witnesses) so who knows, it may even just be our parents only at this point!

    Very small wedding. About 30~35 people including 5~8 small children. We both have smaller families and we are only inviting very close friends.

    We have about 130 guests (including kids) - some may thing that's average, others may think it's big. I think it's average?

    Our official guest count is 54. We always planned staying below 75 so this many people for us is perfect. 🥰

    Hi there,


    We also invited 80 guests any more would just be way too many guests for us. Not only is it expensive the more guests you have but how in the heck are you able to get around to more then that many people in one night?! We have a total of 71 rsvpd! So we are extremely happy with that number.

    Well that was such a hard decision for me that we actually have decided to have a destination wedding! We are getting married in Vegas and telling people because it is so far away we are only taking our closest family and a few friends.

    Wow i only invited 60 people and i thought that was pushing it especially for covid. Less than half that have rsvpd and its in October but honestly i think the smaller the better and only the people who really care will show and thats who you want to be there at the end of the day.

    I am having about 75 guest in a venue that holds 365 people. I get annoyed because some family members keep trying to discourage me due to Covid-19. At this point if you don’t want to come, don’t try to spoil my happiness.
