Question for all the ladies who's wedding is just around the corner or have already gotten married...

Of all the people you invited, how many rsvp'd no?  or if you're already married, how many didn't attend?

Thanks everyone!

    We invited 355 we ended up with a final count of 258, 260 if you count us. That's about 26% not coming. Getting married on the 26th, so no idea on the attendance day of.

    We invited about 144 and have about half of that who RSVPed yes. We are doing a destination wedding though-our guests are mostly from WI and CA with some from CT.

    We invited 135ish and 95 said yes.  Last minute, 3 didn't attend (two sick kids and one no-show extended cousin who still hasn't told me why she went to the ceremony then ditched the reception).  So around 70%. 

    My entire family is from OOS (65% of our total was my side) and many flew in for the wedding.  His side (35%) is a bit more local, but obviously not as many people.

    We invited about 205 & 193 rsvp'd yes ... about 4 of those RSVPs no showed day of.  I thought we would have alot more no's since our wedding was out of state for more than 75% of our guests, but that didnt happen!

    135 invited and 85 RSVP'd yes so a 63% acceptance rate.  We estimated that we would have  around 90 people so we were pretty close.  100% of our guests were OOS with the vast majority having to fly.  In the end every single one of FI's and my friends are coming!!  Several of our friends are coming without their SOs and some family members are coming alone too since travel is so expensive so that cut down on our acceptance %.

    I'm getting married on the 26th as well - we invited 315, we have 225 coming. Around 70% invited were from out of town.
