My shower is saturday and we have 20 confirmed people with the possibility of 2 more, and all of that is family with the exception of my bridal party which are my friends. i feel like that isnt very many?! we invited like 32 or something. just kinda bummed that it'll probably be lame. how many were at your shower? was it still fun?

    14 maybe? I invited 22, not counting my sister and two cousins. But I had 4-5 people bail on me the day before or day of.

    I think there were 9 or 10 people at mine. My mom hosted it and it was a surprise, so it was just family and BP.

    I had 11 people, it was a surprise from my sister in my hometown so nobody I know where I live now or FHs family could go.

    Zero, I'm not having one...but seriously? I never go to showers. I flat out hate them. Wedding showers are only slightly less boring than baby showers IMHO. I send a gift and call it a day. I don't even feel guilty. Sorry. I only go if I'm in the wedding party, and I absolutely HAVE to.

    Mine is only about 8-10 people and I'm excited. I've moved around a lot and people are traveling for the wedding so the shower is just some local people, couple of BMs, and some of FH's family. It's mostly about the food and wine and hanging with some fun women Smiley smile I hate having parties "for" me so this is perfect!

    23 and it was plenty. It was wonderful, but almost too many people. It was challenging to catch up with everyone.

    We had 12 RSVP most are family and then my close friends from work (FMIL was not invited). We're having a small wedding of 44. We're doing a brunch type high tea. I think it will be fun. Everyone is very excited to go!

    I have about 60 on the guest list.. Is that a lot? I expect around 40 to actually show up, as a few are out of town and still asked for an invitation because they'd like to send a gift.

    I'm most likely not having one. I hate showers, especially big ones. If I have to go to one, I prefer it's under 15 people.
