    We are somewhere around 45-50 invitations sent out. We have a lot of family in other states, so we are only expecting around 45 guests at the wedding.

    110 on the guest count but know at least 10 will be unable to show. Hoping for 95 that we have to pay for (MIL is footing the bill for her friends that we are inviting plus the Irish relatives who we are not inviting but may show anyway so that will be another 10 people)

    We started with 50 but ended up inviting 80. We're hoping for around 65-70. Smiley smile

    We are caping this SOB at 250.
    Absolutely no more than that.

    Our venue can handle 240. And they are on with 250.

    Our guest list is at 220 currently. But we haven't hashed out the finances friend invites.

    I'm praying for a 175 turnout.

    We are having what we call a small wedding, since our close families come in around 150.

    Our list is up to 260 at the moment but I’m hoping it goes down a bit...

    We are currently at 150. Hoping for some declines. Would love to be at 100 but we both have big families.

    We are inviting 135, but since everyone has to travel to get there, I'm a little worried our attendance will be closer to 90-100!
