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're inviting just ourselves. Haha. With the officiant, our photographer, FH, and myself, we'll total out at four people.

    I'm up to 75, I think. I anticipate hitting 100 once I get his mom's full list, since my FH is pretty useless with who he should and wants to invite. His family is coming to the US from the UK so it's a destination for them.

    I'm trying to get mine down to 200. We are right around there but my FH wants to add a few more

    58 invited, currently 39 Yeses - waiting on 7 RSVPs so maximum of 46. It is, however, a 2nd marriage for my FH. Not for me.

    192 people are getting invites, hoping for around 165-170 to show...to me this is a very large wedding, but we both have large families

    We invited 235 people. Hoping for 200 but prepared to pay for 235 if need be. Actually 236 now one if our guest added a guest to his RSVP lol.

    I'm inviting 135. I think we can appreciate weddings of all sizes without the passive aggressive accusations of being impersonal.

    We started with a list of 150 but once we accounted for significant others we ended up around 200. We already know about 20-25 members of FH's family won't make it. Hoping to end around 170, but that might be wishful thinking since I've had family start adding extra people. Our venue can hold up to 250, but I'd prefer to keep it smaller.

    Inviting 32, 24-32 could show. It's OOT for all but us and FHs best friend, but also pretty much all family, so we shall see.

    @dreamer we're doing exactly that! (Minus the age restrictions). Sunday of the Labor Day weekend next year. I'm having trouble keeping it at 200 even, our wants are around 250. Grrr!

    Probably around 100 and hoping for 80 to show, we're getting married Thanksgiving weekend so we're not sure what the turnout will be beyond family.

    200 is huge to me! I thought I had a big family until I started making my guest list lol

    The guest list is currently at 285 and it's not done. The venue holds 300 so we will probably invite the full 300 when said and done. We are probably going to get 200-250

    We are inviting around 250. Expecting about 190-200 to actually come since so many of the guest list is from out of state!

    Guest list has 225 right now. Every since person (except me and FH) are OOT by at least 5 hours so I'm thinking we will probably end up having closer to 175-ish.
