    Hi ladies

    Maybe I am being daft here but was wondering if you could help. I have a package deal for 50 day guests and 100 evening guests. Now to me as the guests will be guests of ours this should mean 50 guests plus the two of us. However on one of the emails I have received the co-ordinator stated the package includes wedding breakfast for 50. I have checked my terms and conditions but can find no reference to this.

    As the package states '50 guests' would you take this to mean 50 plus bride and groom = 52 total, or 48 guests in addition to bride and groom? Just wanted a few opinions before clarifying with venue!

    Many thanks

    I would take that as a total of 50 people so includes the bride and groom....

    Thanks for your advice ladies. Was hoping it would be 50 guests in addition to us, as to me they are our guests and we are not. Better to have the correct information.

    I see where your coming from! They should say people and not guests...guests are other people not the bride and groom!... I forgot to include us and our lil girl when i was making the list of "guests" so had to go back and delete some people :S

    There may be only 48 people who are your guests, but all 50 of you are guests of the hotel.
