But like you, they were mostly yes'es in the beginning! At the very end, it worked out perfectly...we had only budgeted and accommodated (in our venue) for 202 guests. Our final numbers were 247 invited guests and about 195 accepted. I think on the actual day of, we probably had right around 190 guests there with us. Plan that someone will say they're coming and then either not show up at all or leave right after the ceremony). We had one couple not show up and two couples leave immediately after the ceremony.
