Count the number of wedding tables

Three-step method of digital calculation

Today, I will teach you how to determine the number of wedding tables so that guests can eat and drink well. It is mainly divided into three steps.

1. Estimate the approximate number of people

2. Inform the guest to confirm the number.

3. Finalize the number of people

1, estimated approximate number of people

Guests who need to be invited can be divided into two categories. The first category: the total number of guests that must be invited, and the second category: the number of guests who don't care is halved.

computing formula

If the expected number of people on the wedding day is rest day = number of people x 1.5, and if the expected number of people on the wedding day is working day = number of people x 12, the number of tables is generally estimated according to the method of 10 table or more 1 table, so that we can roughly estimate the wedding banquet with the hotel.

Note: The above figures are calculated according to the head count, not counting the guest's lover or child. If you are a close relative, you need to count all family members.

illustrate

If the calculated number of guests to be invited is 150, and the rest day is to be reported, it is estimated that the number of guests is 225, so it is 23 tables, and generally 2-3 more tables need to be prepared.

At this time, you need to find a venue that can accommodate more than 23 tables, but when looking for a wedding venue, don't look for a venue that can only accommodate 23 tables. In order to avoid the situation that the venue is too crowded or the guests who are willing to come exceed expectations, you must find a venue that can accommodate 5- 10, which means that the wedding venue you booked must accommodate at least 28 tables.

2. Inform the guest to confirm the number.

About two months before your wedding, all your guests will be informed. You need to tell the guests your wedding date and registration place accurately, and ask if the other party can come and how many people will come, so that you can calculate a more accurate number of people attending the wedding.

It should be noted that if there is a big gap with the number of people counted for the first time, you must contact the hotel you booked in time to see if you need to adjust the venue.

3. Finalize the number of people

A week before the wedding, basically all the guests can accurately answer how many people you can come. Generally speaking, hotels will require newlyweds to pay some money before the wedding. At this time, we can determine whether we need to increase or decrease the number of tables according to the final number of guests, and then go to the hotel to pay.

Generally, the number of wedding tables calculated according to this three-step method has a high probability that there will be no shortage of guests.
