How it is calculated
Total budget = venue + catering per person × attendees + entertainment + other expenses.
Cost per attendee = total budget ÷ attendees — a handy benchmark for comparing against past events or the market.
If some costs don't scale with attendance (venue, entertainment are fixed; catering is variable), cost per attendee drops noticeably as the guest count grows — run a few scenarios with different attendee counts to see the economies of scale.
