Wedding Size: Big or Small?

I’m not sure if what I’m having is a small wedding or medium wedding. Is having 85 guests small, medium or both? I don’t even know! I have a very small family and my fiancé has a very big family! And then we’re inviting close friends. From what I read small weddings are more affordable and large weddings are very expensive!

I'd be happy with just 20 immediate family & close friends, but my FH says he has lottsssss of friends & wants a big wedding 🙄

I think I wanted a small wedding but my family is pretty big and the number is going up by the day🤷🏽‍♀️ So who knows😂😂

Around 120 people I think is what we’re gonna end up with. I just need to stop telling people they’re invited 😅

We are 50 max.

I definitely see the appeal of a smaller wedding, and that is what we originally wanted. When we sat down and actually made lists of who we truly want there, we ended up going over 150… it was insane. I never thought we’d be inviting that many people, but we learned that # was average. I’m a little stressed out about the guest list and stuff, but we’ll make it work.

We will ha e 100 or less. Im happy with small because too big becomes overwhelming to me.

I'm having 50 guests I think this is a great amount of ppl to have. I wanted more but I'm on a budget so team small is the best for me & my Fiancé

I wanted a small wedding, but our guest list right now is around 80. This includes some out of state family members so I am sure the number will go down.

Our guest max is 100 so I’ll say team smedium lol! We are excited that people want to attend but have to leave our kids due to head count.

View Quoted Comment I agree, we were shooting for 75 and exceeded that quickly.

I'm team small!! We are having about 40 people. I want to enjoy my day now feel like I'm being pulled in all directions

I’m team small wedding! But since we have so many loved ones, it’s turned into 100 count guest list lol! But still trying to pull off a “small wedding” budget

I guess I'm middle, we have about 150. My future husband thinks that's a lot but really it's not

We are team small! One of the main reasons why we picked our venue was because it can only hold a max of 75 people.

We are having a super small wedding! Inviting 36, but am expecting the turn out to be more like 20-25. I am excited because it’s going to be perfect for our budget and ensure that only the people who mean the most to us will be there!

Team small wedding. Maximum 75 people including all services.

120 at the ceremony only 60 at Reception

We are smaller 100 people wedding, we were going to keep it really small but both families want to get together and have not been able to in a while.

When we first got engaged, I was team small wedding. I wanted only very close friends and family there. I even suggested we elope lol. Now that we're in the midst of planning, and after selecting out venue, we opened up the guestlist to include more people and are inviting around 150 guests. There hasn't been a wedding in either of our families in YEARS, and we decided we really wanted to celebrate and have a big party with family and friends. It's going to be nice to have everyone get together because it's been a while. We hope to only get married once, so might as well make it memorable. Sometimes I feel like 150 is a lot, but after talking to others, I guess it's more mid size, especially given the fact that we both have big Mexican families.
