How big is your wedding?

Out of curiosity, how many people are you inviting to your wedding? I'm inviting 200 and people think that's large, and I'm just wondering what everyone else has in mind!

    We invited just over 200, 212 if I'm remembering correctly. We are currently at 74 accepted RSVP's, but have 2 weeks to go. We are hoping to hit about 160-175 attendance.

    Inviting 150. Had to cut down kids and everybody had to cut some extraneous people (parents bosses etc) to make this number happen.

    We'd like to invite 75 people. It's a small event because we expect less than that to come.

    200, half of them being adults and the other half being children. We both have big families.

    220 invited. 180 attending including children. The closer it got the more I was wishing we would have invited less or that the rsvps would come back as "no's" lol

    Approximately 400 for us, it doesn't seem as overwhelming as it sounds!

    That's large, but our list is creeping up on 200 if we include kids and guests. We're going to cut it all to pieces and try to end up around 100-120

    My guest list is 72, but with us having a DW, we expect really about 27 to 32 ppl to come.

    I have around 200 but I want to slash that number so bad . It's hard to do when you come from a large family .

    We invited 62 and 58 attended. Perfect size for what I wanted. Although if we had the wedding in my hometown instead of his home state, I'd probably would have had to invite about 110 to include all the relatives my mom would have loved for me to invite--people I haven't seen in eons. So I avoided that scenario and saved some money.

    I don't even know 200 people much less imagine that I'd like that many. That's a big bash!

    ETA: just saw @Ifeoma's post of 400. Lordy, I can't even imagine that. That's a whopping big basher of a bash!
