    30... As it is I keep saying 26 people to my fiance and we will have 120! I hate large groups... especially of my family.

    I'd love to invite 300 guests to my wedding reception; not all of them would be able to come, so there would be a nice-sized party Smiley smile

    I'd definitely invite 30 over 300, small and intimate to me is a lot less stressful than big.

    I would definitely chose 30 guest for a more intimate setting and possibly change my date for a venue I really wanted😁

    Our wedding isn’t intimate bc we are expecting 120-150 (no final count) but I would much rather prefer 30 over 300 lol that would just be too overwhelming for me & I think we’d have to scale our wedding down due to costs lol

    I would rather invite 30, that way I know I can make all of them feel as special for coming as they make me feel for having them at our event. In a large wedding over 150+ your time with each person is limited, some may not even get a pic with you or get to congratulate you personally and I think it’s exhausting trying to please that many and will cost you a bundle.

    30, easier clean up and I feel like there would be more quality time with less people than more

    300 for sure. We have big families and many friends that need to be there with us.

    I have a huge family and I wouldn't want to disappoint any of them so 300 would be my choice.

    30 close friends and family. more intimate and inexpensive or you could splurge on the small crowd.

    That's how I feel, it's either cut all of my friends out or spend a little more to include everyone! What is your max guest list number?

    Wow that's awesome! I come from a smaller family so it's so cool to see how big other families are! I'm sure it'll be a great time!

    Aww I'm sorry! I'm sure it'll be a great time celebrating with all of your guests! Is it mostly family or friends?

    I feel the same way!! I have a smaller family so I would want some of them who don't know my friends as well to mingle with others!
