Quick Poll - how many guests?

Saracroft251, 8 March, 2010 at 15:02 Posted on Planning 0 55

I am bored, so I thought I do a quick poll on how many day and Eve guests are you inviting to your weddings, for some reason this always intrigues me, one of my friends had 500 people to her wedding last summer!!!!

We are inviting 80 to the Day and another 40 to the Eve.

    Inviting 72 to the day (but i know some wont come but we have to invite them, so its more likely to be 65)

    An extra 50 to the evening (but still havent included work friends to the list as not sure i'll be in the same place by then)

    I don't think I know 500 people!

    We have around 90 ish to the day and about another 50 or so to the evening.

    It's the Groom's family that's bumped the numbers up LOL! There's roughly 40 on our side, 30 or so friends of theirs and the rest is the Groom's side! Glad we've only got a small family LOL!

    Thanks girls, it is good to get an insight to your numbers, I cannot believe that my friend knows 500 people either!

    I think 60-80 is about the average for the day

    Hey ?

    We've got 120 to the day and that is rising to 190 in the evening.

    Seems we're pretty above average numbers-wise! We both have pretty big families and that's the main reason for it.

    Ours is really complicated.

    We can only have 40 (inc bride and groom) to registry office so then another ten or so to meet us at reception for the wedding breakfast and then prob another 100at night. So 150 in total.

    At the moment it's 110 to be invited to the day (10 of those are children) then not sure on the evening - possibly another 20.

    30-40 to the wedding and about 100 to the evening after party! If i invited everyone I knew i don't think i could get 500! Mine is mainly family. I seem to have a few, but very good friends!

    We are around 90 in the day, and then another 50 ish in the evening.

    Evening guests are mainly work colleagues (as opposed to work friends) and 2nd cousins (if we invited them all to the day + partners it would be another 20!)
