    Wow 400!! Sounds like a party! Is it mostly family or friends?

    50 sounds like a great number! Intimate enough that'll you be able to talk to and celebrate with everyone!

    300, we have big families and lots of friends. it's also almost customary for our parents to invite all their friends too. goes back to the old days where weddings are a "village" and "communal" affair. we were aiming for 350, but our invites are up to 500 now... Smiley xd

    Definitely 30! 300 would be more than doubling my current count and I couldn't image dealing with 300 people tracking their rspvs and food selections and all their opinions haha

    Wow 500, wild!! I totally understand that though, sometimes you want everyone to be included in the celebration! Let me know what the RSVP count ends up being!
