On average, between 15 and 20 percent of guests will RSVP "no" to a wedding. This year, experts are saying couples should be prepared to host 100 percent of the people they invite.
What percentage of wedding invites do not come?
There's no magical formula to determine exactly how many invitees will RSVP "no" (trust us, if we could predict the future for you, we would), but it's safe to plan for roughly 15 percent of people to decline the invitation (and more like 20–30 percent for a destination wedding).
What percentage of invited guests actually come to a wedding?
“A general overall percentage between 75-85 percent of wedding guests usually attend.” The breakdown: 85 percent of local guests, 55 percent of out-of-town guests, and 35 percent of destination wedding guests will show up, Buckley said.
