    I'd consider ours to be medium/large. We have around 160 people on our list right now and are kind of expecting around 150. When we originally started to list just our families (including kids) were at almost 100 people. We decided not to have kids which took away around 35 people in our families alone, so now the rest are friends and family friends. We'd be fine with the list being smaller but this was as small as we could get it lol.

    We are thinking of inviting 140, BUT I’d love to have only 100 or less bc of cost and Delta variant.

    I have about 35 on the guest list with the expectation of 20 showing. Some are out of state and some were invited out of courtesy.

    We’re looking at about 130-150. But it’s in Vegas and people will have to travel for it. So more than likely we might end up having less than 130.

    Yes…. and it might get even smaller! I spoke with FH today and discussed the idea of either eloping in Hawaii (where the honeymoon is) or having an intimate wedding with 20 max and dinner afterward. FH agreed (Thank God 🙏🏽) because after a year postponement and now this Delta variant, I couldn’t be more OVER IT! I’m ready to exchange vows and rush off to the honeymoon. So we’re thinking it through before deciding on which option to go with. In the meantime, I’m searching for cancellation announcements to mail to our guests 💌 . Best wishes!

    We are inviting 60-65. Small but perfect for us. Everyone on the list has been part of “our” journey.
