Average cost per guest
$300.00
$30,000.00 ÷ 100 guests. Includes fixed costs, not just food and drinks.
How this tool works
Total wedding budget ÷ number of guests = average cost per guest. This spreads every wedding expense across the guest list, including fixed costs.
Does removing one guest save the cost per guest?
Usually it does not. This is an average, not the marginal cost of another guest. Food, drinks, and some rentals may change with your count; photography and many venue fees stay fixed.
Keep planning.
