Hi all!
My boss has graciously offered her private ranch as my venue, the problem is the number of bathrooms available. I would like to keep people out of the house, and she has two bathrooms with access from outdoors.
She seems to think this isn't enough, and that I should also rent a couple of porta-pottys. The idea of having porta pottys at my wedding makes me cringe!
We are inviting right around 100 people. Do you think we need more than 2 bathrooms? Even if we had porta potty's I am inclined to believe that guests would wait in line for a real toilet, ad not even use the portable ones...
Thoughts?
Re: # of Bathrooms per Guest Ratio
I also wander if it is just a regular bathroom in a house, will it be able to keep up with the "work"? I think it would be more trouble if all of a sudden the toilet overflows or stops working.
There are nice portal potty out there that aren't as gross as we all know them. Just my thoughts. I hope it will all work out!
[QUOTE]I agree with PP. Plus if your boss is so nice to let you use her ranch you should respect her wish and look into portal potty.

That is a good point. Are their sewers or septic tanks for waste? You have to ensure that it can handle the load for 150 people. A residential waste system is not the same as a commercial one.

Me: 36, slightly elevated FSH. Everything else (hysterescopy, HSG, b/w) normal.

Suprise BFP Jan 15 2013. Hope this one sticks!
Also keep in mind that it is a farm, and if it is like my parents' where I am having my wedding, it's a septic system that will likely not handle that amount

A standard portable restroom can accommodate approximately 200 uses. For an event your size with already two facilities available, adding one portable restroom will be plenty.
I believe I saw you are from California. I'd love to be able to provide a restroom for you, but we are in Florida. However....Andy Gump is an excellent company. You might want to check them out. Good luck with your wedding and a happy and healthy future to you and your groom.
