We had exactly 149 - a really good number for me. If I REALLY had my way, it would have been less than 100.

We invited 160, but I think our final number was 135. Decent size, wouldn't have wanted it much bigger.

123 RVSP'd yes. I had about 12 no shows but my parents invited some wedding crashers, which I was actually happy that they did. I think there were still 7 empty seats.

30. We had a really intimate wedding weekend with just immediate family and our close friends who would have been in our bridal party had we had a big wedding. We rented out a B&B for everyone to stay at and it was a great time!

I have no idea! Haha. My guess would be 175. Invites were for 234 (that # includes children over 2), but my dear ILs verbally invited many more which we didn't know until a week before and didn't have space for in the building or the tent, so IL had to tell some people they were mistaken and we had no space. I think a bunch of people came but left before dinner because there were a bunch of people on their side that disappeared.

Around 100? It was a nice size. Still felt like a party but not too big.

400!!!! it was out of control. my parents basically invited everyone they knew. the receiving line was pretty hilarious because i hardly knew any of their guests! but, i think that's pretty typical of korean weddings, especially when the parents are footing most of the bill..

Around 300. 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.

Wow, some of these numbers make my chest hurt...I don't think I could stand that many eyes on me!
We invited around 100, and including us had 54 show up. 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).
It was nice...everyone that was there was a close friend or family member.
