Guest list siggy question

bridejl

I am wondering how you ladies are getting your rsvp counts to show in your signatures....the one that has how many yes, how many no and how many not received yet. All my guests are in the guest list manager but I don't know what to do from here! Thanks!

The chit chat board has a FAQ sticky that says how to add tickers and pics and what not.

Here is my code... Just paste this into your sig. and change out the numbers, and delete the *, I had to add them in so that it would show up as a code and not the ticker... I hope it works I haven't tried to do this yet! You can also change the words to your liking )

I made my own little icons and I just manually update the numbers as the RSVPs come in. I saw other ladies with this sort of thing and I thought it was totally cute. If you want to use my icons let me know I'd be glad to share

I got mine from the chit chat board FAQ.

OMG bridejl your wedding list is huggggge! Where are you getting married? What type of venue?

bridejl

Yeah...about the amount of people...LOL it started at 250 and crept up to 350...our venue is a banquet hall that holds 350....my family just knows wayyyyyyyyy too many people and we happen to be wayyyyyy too close to all of them :S

Almost half of our guest list is OOT anyway, all over the country. Plus there were quite a few "guests" included in that number. So we are expecting 250-300.

bridejl

Yeah...about that guest list size! It was originally 250 but crept up to 350 somehow. We were at the 300 range for a while, but then my dad crunched some numbers- almost 50% of our guests are from OOT and there are quite a few guests of single people, so he estimated how many would rsvp no. Then he said that if he's going to throw a party, it's going to be a big one. So, we had to add some cuz we weren't about to argue with him. So, here we are LOL

Our venue is a reception hall that holds 350. We are expecting (hoping, maybe?) for 250-300.

bridejl

Also, we have a large family and a lot of family friends that are more like family...which doesn't help when trying to cut people!

ohnoitskaroljo

That was my issue - i thought 218 was a lot! Dang! lol

And about 75% of our guest list is MY side. LOL I haz a HUGE family =P
