If your wedding is more than a few months away, I would hold off a little bit. If you order everything now, it will just be sitting around until the big day anyway. We're inviting around 190 but are only expecting 150 to come. Our wedding is 7 months away, and I'll probably wait until 3 or so months out to purchase the favors and things of that nature.

That's up to you, everything I've ready says about 80% of the people you invite will come. Of course if it is a destination or holiday wedding that might alter it some. We're planning to invite 250 (but I feel your pain because I'm at 268 right now), and planning for 200. Most places allow you to give them your total the week of the wedding so you should have all the RSVP's by then...fun stuff!

when we started planning our wedding, we were planning for 50 people at the most but when my guest list for the invitations went from35 going out to 46.. I thought i should count it up if every single person RSVPed and showed up and i got 92... then I subtracted the people I knew were not likely to make it and i got 74.... what the heck do i do now? I'm mailing my invites out April 1st and I can't cut anyone... I have not ordered anything that I wont have enough of but the leis and the things for the favors but does this mean I have to wait for all the RSVPs to come in to get anything else?
