We are having 32 for the ceremony and inviting another 20 at night.

- CommentAuthorKitkat85
We are having 60 all day and a total of 120 at evening reception.

Soon to be Mrs Alexander
- CommentAuthorDelirium
We're having 60-70 day guests, and another 40-50 in the evening - I don't think this is too big, roughly 30 from each side at the wedding itself - the day will be fairly intimate and we'll have time to spend with everyone there.
- CommentAuthorlovelylainee
I've seen big when I went to a hindu wedding - they had 300 people there for the whole day!!!!

We've got 80 for the day and an extra 40 people in the evening xxx

- CommentAuthorPB
We are inviting between 50 and 60 to the reception and up to another 60 for the evening.I am hoping however that we get some rejections lol as we are on a package of 50 for the reception and 100 for the evening so each person over that is going to cost us extra.Don't want not to invite enough though and end up paying for places that are not used! x
- CommentAuthorElliekitty
Gosh! I'm starting to think i'm having quite a small wedding in comparison to others, i'm having 40 for the day and another 40 for the evening do.

I have decided on 60 for the day (incl kids) and we are sending out invites to all the cousins and friends (about 140 total) for the evening do but not expecting them all to turn up. x
- CommentAuthorLittleMissBossy
I don't think it's a huge wedding but I consider this as a bigger one. Certainly not small. Our numbers are similar!

It’s so great to find that one special person
you want to annoy for the rest of your life....
- CommentAuthorJennaLouise
Lol, I'm having 75 day guests and people keep telling me that's big. But I didn't think it was xxx
- CommentAuthorMrs Badger
I wouldn't say thats a big wedding, some people have 100s of guests. We are having about 30 for the whole day, which we consider small. xx

Now a Mrs!

- CommentAuthorOWB
70ish to the day, our evening could be anything from 20 - 40, we've yet to mention our wedding plans to the guests, so don't know who'd be up for it.

If only life could be one long tea break
- CommentAuthorstressed to max b2b
160 for wedding and breakfast x then extra 100+ for night do well if they all turn up anyway x

met him 25/8/97

- CommentAuthorbarbie86
We're having 50 to the day, and a further 40-50 (so, 90-100 in total) to the evening. I would class our day as small, and evening as small-average.

I'd say that anything less than 60 to the day is on the smaller side, with 60/70-100 being about average. I'd say 100-150 to the day is large, and 150 plus very large; most people seem to have between 70-100 to the day.

For the evening, I'd say anything up to 200 is average-large; anything over 200 is large.
- CommentAuthorTori-Mrs.Mitchell2b
were having about 80 to the day and about 150 to the evening but thats including the day guests lol.

id say anything under 40 to the day is a small wedding x

I call mine a medium sized wedding, 40 in the day plus 10 children and another 40 adults at night

But I class a big wedding as having all the traditional weddingy things... church, car, photographer, videographer, bridesmaids, page boys, etc etc.....

Finally Mrs Grove :)
- CommentAuthorLittle Kettle
I'd say yours was on the larger side. Ours was definitely small, with just 10 including us in Vegas!

Vegas baby!

28 guests for the ceremony and 146 for the reception, not yet sure if they are all going to be invited to eat or not....that's to be decided

Remember : To the world you may be just one person,
BUT to one person you may just be THE WORLD x x x
- CommentAuthorbridalmiss
170 for the day and meal, and another 40 for the night - all invited to the church beforehand too :-)
- CommentAuthorA.Bird2b
we've invited 23 people for the whole thing (ceremony and reception) so with us 2 and our daughter it will be 28. I don't think I could manage with any more people there, im terrified of it enough as it is (terrible agoraphobia), I hate the idea of all of those people there watching us, waiting for us to make speeches and basically making a huge fuss of us. But thats just me, I'm sure for most people 100+ people is just fine
- CommentAuthorjoey86
We've got 80 coming for the day and wedding breakfast and then another 40 coming for the evening. 80 is more than we were planning on originally! It just started to creep up, but we capped it at 80 and everyone we want can come, plus a few extra people who we originally couldn't invite due to space at the registry office, but now can as we changed ceremony venue.
- CommentAuthorMrsH2B
We are having 15 people at our ceremony abroad and 70 people at the reception when we return. x

- CommentAuthoremmaaa
I thought our wedding was fairly moderately sized, we're having 56 for the day, then probably 120 for the evening. But the more I read on here (and hack out our guestlists!) the more I think it's actually on the small side!
- CommentAuthorMrsKisywisy
we've got around 30 coming to cyprus for the ceremony and the bbq afterward

think we'll have 100ish for the do back home

We only invited the people who we consider closest to us - so had 17 guests (would've been 18 but my auntie was too ill to travel) - so with us there was 19 altogether.
