Weddings: Creating Your Guest List - as part of the Wedding series by GeoBeats.
When you are thinking of your guest list, you want to come up with that list before you start looking for a venue. It's important you do it that way because you don't want the capacity of the venue at which you are going to get married to determine how many people you can invite.
One of the common things I hear about guest lists is that you are going to lose 20% or 15% to a (Unclear). Sometimes that is the case, but often its not the case. You really need to spend time looking at each individual guest and determining for each individual person what the likelihood of them attending is, and then add those numbers up. That will give you a much more accurate estimate and bring it in a much better position to negotiate with all your vendors.
