WE were from neighboring towns, so we were able to get married in my hometown and have the reception in his (within 15 minutes of each other) so it was impossible to leave people out! And we both have HUGE families (his mom has 8 siblings, mine has 5!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-199338 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 12:50:39 +0000 SusieQ 199338@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had about 25 for the ceremony and 130 for the reception. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-199202 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 11:25:12 +0000 Rescuemom10 199202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was right around 150 or so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-199078 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 10:15:39 +0000 lavender 199078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jessiejo17: omg-600!!! </p> <p>We had 98 - but would of loved it if we could've done 120. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-198988 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 09:31:59 +0000 LuLu Mom 198988@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our ceremony was "small" and just family: had 150, our reception we had over 600. I know a TON of people, but our families are both huge and we decided the more the merrier! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-198964 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 09:19:23 +0000 purrpletulips 198964@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We ended up with about 125, with about 1/3 being under the age of 10 (that's what I get for being one of the last of my friends/family to get married). DH wanted it smaller but having family there was important to me and just my mom's side (brothers, sisters, kids, kids kids) put us at about 40. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-198955 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 09:16:31 +0000 littlebug 198955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had 133.

We wanted smaller, but we fully realized that our wedding was for our families and not just for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-198922 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 08:40:49 +0000 Sophia 198922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had 12, not counting 3 little ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-198793 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 06:28:14 +0000 looch 198793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>130, mostly because our extended families were not able to attend...too far for most cousins too fly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-198738 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 01:04:06 +0000 Boogs 198738@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A little under 200, and it was pretty much all family! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-198673 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 23:03:44 +0000 Zuzu2and11 198673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A little over 300! So much fun. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-198671 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 23:01:12 +0000 Grace 198671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 120-ish, I think. It was enough to be fun, but was still too many people to be able to talk much to anyone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-198587 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 22:14:51 +0000 Penny Lane 198587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Less than 30 at the reception! At the actual ceremony (it was a religious thing, so not everyone could attend) there was about 12 people.</p> <p>Then we had another reception in CO for DH's family, and there were about 50 people there I would guess? I didn't have anything to do with planning that one :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-198575 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 22:07:03 +0000 DillonLion 198575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>140. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-198573 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 22:05:36 +0000 rawrasaur 198573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it was like 57 or something. I was shooting for a little smaller, but it is hard with family. It worked out well though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-198562 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 21:59:58 +0000 woodentulip 198562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we had 116. it was a great number for us! if i were to do it now, i would probably go smaller though! we are going to a wedding this weekend with less than 45 total. it will be so intimate and nice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding/page/2#post-198535 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 21:41:21 +0000 mediagirl 198535@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>76.

It was a very short engagement, though, and a fair amount of my friends and family that might have otherwise been able to come couldn't (because they live across the country and couldn't afford a last-minute plane ticket). </p> <p>It was nice...everyone that was there was a close friend or family member. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding#post-198360 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 20:38:49 +0000 erwoo 198360@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around 185.

We got married in my super small hometown. It's expected to invite everyone in town through the announcement in the newspaper. We got married on New Year's Day, so that actually cut down on the number of people that would have attended on any other day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding#post-198208 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 20:01:19 +0000 singingbee 198208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>between 200-225. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-guests-did-you-have-at-your-wedding#post-198202 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 19:59:54 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 198202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was small.
