Asking how many guests you'll have is always a tricky question because in reality, we don't know!! Everyone will tell you "Yes! I'm coming!" but until they confirm their room reservation with a deposit, you just can't count on it. Since you do need to know how many rooms you'll need for your room block, it is important to have a rough idea of how many guests will attend. Start by making a master guest list and include everyone you would invite if you were having a wedding at home. Then, start breaking it down. We've come up with a pretty easy way to sort your guest list into your A, B and C lists.
Add together all of your A list + half of your B list to get a close estimate of the number of guests who will travel for your wedding. This is who you need to set rooms aside for.
For example: A list has 42 guests (count all 42 guests) B list has 88 guests (count half, so 44 guests) C list has 25 guests (do not count) The expected turn out here would be 42 + 44 = 86 guests. Assuming 2 guests per room, you'll need 43 rooms. Don't stress over this! Just remember, you'll never know for sure until guests are all booked, and that's ok. Looking for more great tips like this?
