    We're having about 90 in the day and then a further 30/40 in the evening- we didn't want a huge wedding and so we cut down quite a bit but everyone we want to be there will be there which is the most important thing

    Currently 49 WB and 93 evening guests (which includes the WB guests).

    A party of 6 evening guests and a couple from work are "in the post" for an RSVP date of 1st March. Go figure.

    37 rsvp's are still outstanding, which we have started to chase.

    Our venue requires 40 afternoon and 100 evening guests minimum so we are at least hitting our numbers; would be nice to hit 120 in the evening and I'm sure that won't be too difficult to get to.

    Were inviting 165 to the day (big big families) but we know of 6 who definately wont come.

    Evening do - hotel can accomodate another 180. We havent a list made out yet of evening do but we know loads of day guests wont stay at nite. Were probably talking around 200 invites (50 for me, 50 for OH, 50 for my parents, 50 for his parents) to evening do & im guessing around 60/70% will actually appear - evening guests in NI dont generally RSVP to evening do's!

    We have 44 in the day and then a further 50/60 (depending on RSVP's) in the evening. We both have really small families and only wanted the people we know the best to be there and no randoms for the sake of it. Interesting to see how we all differ ?

    We decided not to have evening guests. We went for the option of having everyone we really wanted there and being able to really spoil them.

    Ideally we wanted 98 for the day (easier for the tables!) but at the moment we're looking more like 110.

    50 for the day, and then about another 50 invited for the evening - estimate only around 30 of them will make it though...so 50 day & 80 evening.

    We're tiny compared to some - 40 in the day and another 50 or so in the evening though most of these are Mr Kooks' football friends etc!

    Around 50-60 day guests. We had orginally intended not to have additional evening guests, but we've been invited to the evening part of OH's colleague, along with the rest of their department. There is no way that I'm inviting that little lot to the whole day!

    About 80 day guests for us and we're not really having evening guests but OH's parent's want to invite a few of their friends for the evening which I have no problem with, so maybe an additional 10 or so in the evening.

    We're having 20 guests. This number was a lot higher before we realised that we were looking at paying £80pp for people we hadn't seen in years, likely wouldn't see for years after the wedding and in some cases people we don't even like! Now we've scrapped all that and are inviting only close family and friends.
