How Many Guests Are You Expecting?

We always thought atleast 100, but because we are having a kid-free wedding & reception, we may be leaning towards 85. What about you?

    We invited around 105, but I'm expecting between 60-80 to actually come. We'll see what happens with the RSVPs.

    ETA: Originally only wanted 50, then the list shot up to 86. We did some chopping.

    Venue holds 150, my aunt convinced us to take it down to 130 so people aren't all squished at the tables.

    We're inviting around 115 and expecting 80-85. It's a DW so it could be even lower, which we would love!

    Invited 195, 143 coming. We lucked out and one of FH cousins is getting married on the same day, so most of that side of the family isn't coming.

    About 120 on the list, hoping for about 100, may get closer to 85 or 90. We'll see!

    HWHS, just remember even if it was 70 invites, most are couples unless you specified (doubling the number). My big mistake there!!

    Minimum for our venue is 100 - which sounded about right to us. We invited 126. As of today 76 have accepted and we have 0 declines! RSVP date is the 18th. Even my Uncle and Aunt from So Cal are coming - because as he said - This is a once in a lifetime event! I am only expecting a child hood friend and his wife who live in CT to send their regrets - so is looking like we will have a full house of 124, if this keeps up!

    We have 220 on the list, I'm think the number will fall between 190-200.

    Our budget is for 100. We intend to invite about 120. This number consists of mostly family members: our parents, uncles, aunts and 1st cousins. We think we may get about 75 (hopefully lol) since about 80% of our guests are about a 5+ hour drive away.
