Congrats on your engagement & upcoming wedding. It's always the way when we think that everyone won't come - they will come!! Sometimes it's better to be safe than sorry & have the extra (I would go the extra 10) if you have 50 confirmed....depending on your budget you could always give the bomboniere per couple? Even if the extras were made & then you don't get the last 10 confirmed, you could awlays give them to your family/bridesmaids as an extra "thank you gift"? Hope you have luck in decididng what you want to do, it's never easy but you also don't want someone to miss out :)
Best regards

Congratualtions on your up coming wedding,
This is a question asked by most couples and it really depends on the cost of the Bomboniere, will you, family or friends use the extras or will they simply be discarded. The general rule is 5-10% more than RSVP numbers, so in your case you are only talking 2 - 5 extras. Which is usually worth it for peace of mind.
If the Bomboniere is breakable then it is definately a good idea to have a few extras on hand.
I hope this helps and all the best for you big day

This is a great question that we get asked often. For many brides they find it unfortunate that they can't invite everyone to their wedding as there simply has to be a cut off point at some stage. With regards to the uninvited guests on your big day, you may find some could arrive at your ceremony and still share in your happiness. Perhaps those who are unable to attend such as friends, family, neighbours or work collegues would be tickled pink to recieve a thoughtful momento as in your weddinng bomboniere. Some find it a lovely gesture to offer one to those who have played a helpful role in creating the day of your dreams. Here's a starting point for you to work out your extras. Going from past experiences most brides usually have 10-15 on hand for after the event.
