Why Cost Per Guest Matters

When someone asks to add 10 extra guests to your wedding, they are not asking for 10 more chairs. They are asking you to spend $1,350-2,750 more. Understanding the true per-guest cost helps you make informed decisions about your guest list and politely explain to family members why you cannot invite everyone they suggest.
