How many different states are your guests coming from?

Vanessasaurus, on August 6, 2018 at 11:14 AM Posted in Planning 0 55
Just for fun, I wanted to see how many differnt states (or even countries) are your guests coming from? Do you think most will show despite the distance?

I was just working on STDs and was thinking about how crazy it is how many states are represented in our guest list: NY, NJ, MA, PA, DE, MD, VA, SC, FL, NM, AZ= 11 Total! I think MOST our east coast guests will show but probably not the few west coast guests and some of the FL guests!

    We're from Michigan and we've invited guests from Florida, Virginia, Arkansas, Indiana, Texas, Idaho, North Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee. I have no idea how many of them will be able to come yet but I know the ones from Virginia and Florida have already rsvp'd so maybe some of the others will.

    Omg, we have guests from all over! About 40% of our guests are local (NJ) and we have many from California (where FH grew up, and where his family/some of his friends still are), and then we have others from: Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin....... then FH’s uncle from Spain, my cousins from Australia, and my friend from England! We’ve got EVERYWHERE 😂

    I'm guessing most of the people from California will come, since those people are FH's immediate family and his closest friends from growing up (one is his groomsman). Then my MOH lives in Florida, FH's best man is in Tennessee, and I have another bridesmaid in Virginia. I'm also positive that my FH's uncle will be flying in from Spain... when we told him we were engaged, his reaction was: "let me know where and when, i'll buy a plane ticket this minute!" lol. I doubt my friend from England will be able to make it and my cousins from Australia probably won't either (though they do come to the US a lot so maybe they'll be here anyway) and not sure about the people from other states. We'll see!

    This is a really cool thread!

    We were living in NH but chose a venue in NY near the Mass border, driving distance for NY,NJ, MA, VT, NH, southern Quebec. So the real travelers came from Wyoming, Manitoba, Ontario, Nunavut and Nunavik, and Labrador, Canada. And from Greenland, Iceland, Finland, Denmark, Italy and Switzerland. Why we married on a long weekend, and occupied a small Catskills family resort motel, and Inn , for most of a week. The only people who could not make it at the last minute, were those within ½ hour if the venue ( sick, and had a baby)

    That sounds like a great location choice! I went to college not far from the Catskills and it was just lovely there! What a guest list too! Wow!

    Virginia, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, Oregon, North Carolina, Florida, California, Arizona, Texas, New York, Illinois, and Belgium (although technically that's a country). So 14 different places. Believe it or not, my guest list is only 60. Only about 17 of the guests are actually within our state. None are less than 1.5 hours from the location of the ceremony and reception.
