Each extra guest costs only the per-guest amount. Cutting guests saves that, not the average, unless it lets you book a smaller venue.

Questions

What counts as a per-guest cost?

Anything priced per head: catering, drinks packages, invitations, favours, chair hire if charged per seat.

Why is the B-list saving smaller than the average?

Fixed costs like the venue hire and photographer don’t change with a few more or fewer guests.
