The percentage of people who RSVP YES but do not show? Do you think people will do this?

I saw this online from a wedding planner...

From my experience, 15-20% of guests who RSVP'd 'yes', will not show. And about 5-10% will show that either did not RSVP or RSVP'd 'no'.

But there are other factors to consider. If your guest list is 100 or below, count on most of those guests to attend because most likely they are your closest family and friends. Also, if many guests have to travel to your wedding, the number of actual attendees will be less.

Did I read that correctly, 5%-10% who dont RSVP will show?!

Yeah! I am surprised by that. I am 100% sure than none of the people who RSVP'd no will be showing up. They better not bc they wont have a place to sit bc I am not setting up for any extra people. Our number works to 8 per table and fill each table completely. If I have extra seating I will have either a table sitting empty or a couple tables that are half full which I think will look weird.

I think it's about 10%. All my friends say they've had people no show after they RSVP. Our venue says they make enough food for 10% more than the number you give them so I plan on telling them a few less than I expect based on RSVPs.
