    I would like 30, just to help with costs. But both my Fiance and I both have big families so a small wedding isnt really an option.

    I get anxiety in big crowds. So I'd keep it small.

    My family is too big to do just 30, so 300 for sure

    30, I can't imagine the costs for 300! We also don't even know 300 people.

    I would love to invite 30. I have a larger family than my FH, and he has more friends than me. Therefore, our guest list is around 160 and we're expecting 120-140 attendees. Not terrible.

    I would invite 30. Which I am doing now. I only want who are close to me to be there. There's no reason to pay for that many people when you probably dont know most of them.

    30, we are up to 60, wanted this many in the beginning of planing now wish we went with the 35...lots of people we hardly ever see...paying $130 per person...smaller is better! but we will have a great time.

    Not bad at all! I think that's a nice number of guests, not too many where it's overwhelming!

    That's awesome! Is your guest list mostly family or friends?

    (Hopefully this reply works) It's mostly family. There are about 7 friends. Family is more than blood though Smiley smile

    We are having 200 but I'd prefer under 100. Unfortunately we both have large families and are over 100 right there
