    Small. 80 guest. It’s less expensive. We’ve mailed out 102 invites so we should be pretty close to our number.

    We’re having 150! Not sure if that’s big or small. It feels small!! We had to cut out a lot of people we wanted to invite

    Small. I wanted something intimate where I could splurge on things you normally can't because per person and space adds up quickly. We are having a gorgeous wedding for under 3k including EVERYTHING. Even our honeymoon. It was just simple math for us and an all inclusive pop up wedding was just perfect for a small and gorgeous wedding. I'm so excited. It's next Sunday! Yay!

    I'm having about 70 guests at my ceremony and about 100-120 at my reception! We have 2 different venues as well. Some people in my area consider 120 people small and some tell me I am crazy for inviting that many people! So I guess I'm in between?

    I hope they all show up for you as well! Our 2 venues are about 3 minutes apart and both are about 2 minutes from the hotel most guests that had to travel are staying at so we couldn’t get much better than that! Yay we’re both about the same amount of time away. I hope your big day is as wonderful as you hope it will be! ❤️

    Well we have 180 on our list. Considering my culture, it’s not big at all. However, I feel like weddings should be celebrated with people you have a meaningful relationships with and not everyone you know (which has been a struggle in this planning season since my mom has her own list)

    I understand. Everyone wasn’t allotted a plus one on our list. Are you allowing all of your guests a plus one?

    Definitely. However the big or small wedding comment came from social standards.

    Nice and intimate. Indoor or outdoor since it’ll be the summertime, if you don’t mind me asking.

    That’s the goal! A party isn’t a party if you can’t mingle with everyone.
