Please make sure you have enough, or extra, seats for your guests. Also make sure there is enough food for your guests. Seriously... do not under estimate these two things. If anything, just make allowances for more people because you just may never know.
I wish we could get into this RSVP kind of thing it would really help with the estimating of food and seating....but us Bruneians simple don't do that sort of thing...but in my opinion we actually should..!
My advice on how to estimate this sort of thing would be to count the number of invitations you give out, say 500, then multiply that by 2. Then minus 15%, then add the number of how many familly members are actively halping you out for the actual wedding itself (plus the number of their children) ie. running around your house and at the wedding hall like mad preparing stuff for you.
And then depending on your budget, from there you can add on what you can afford...probably throw in one extra kem, just in case!
Reasoning:
Multiply by 2 coz usually one invitation is for 2 people. OK
Minus 15% coz chances are this 15% may not attend coz of other invitations, they are out the country etc etc etc....
Then adding your family members in. This one is possible to count and make a close estimation.
HHhhhmmm....Does this work...hhmmmm? sounds about right......
