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 around 200 and ended up probably around 160. We also had people decide to add more people than we planned on which was stressful but it all ended up being okay Smiley smile

    My grandmother had 15 children, so I have a very large family. We are looking at 180. That was limiting a lot of people. Not inviting cousins from out of town and only close friends.

    We're sending invites this week for 132. So far we know at least 12 won't make it.

    Guest list is at 258 currently. I'm comfortable with inviting 250 and hoping we end up around 200. Still would like to get the list under 250 though

    We're thinking about 150, but we know FOR A FACT some will not RSVP or say no because we're doing adults only, and some relatives are out of state/country. We want to have our wedding on a Sunday!

    Our reception hall holds 380. So we're inviting 360 and are going to set up for 300. And that's not including kids.

    I told my hair stylist I felt we were inviting a ton of people when I said 205, and she responded saying that was nothing as people often have like 300-500. I was like damn girl who's hair are you styling

    @ShannanS, if you are inviting 360...why are you only setting up for 300? How to you know you won't have over 300 attendance?!?

    We wanted to stay under 100 but we ended up at about 140. A lot of OOT though so we'll probably end up lower
