I used mine at a party for about 85-90 people. Obviously not everyone at a party that size will get into the chocolate, and the fountain did a great job. I ran it continuously for nearly 3 hours. If you use a chocolate that requires the addition of oil, prepare it ahead of time so you're not pouring vast quantities of oil in the fountain before your guests' eyes. :)

Hi- I just had this fountain at a two-day Bridal and Wedding Show and had it going continuously for 6 - 7 hours each day. It worked great! I just microwaved the chocolate/oil mixture in the crock part of the crock pot, and transported it to the Show that way. I was able to take it home after the first day and just throw it in the dishwasher. I used less than 10lbs of chocolate between the two days, and never ran out. It was quite a draw - especially for the little girls who were modeling Wedding attire. They loved poking little marshmallows with toothpicks and getting them all drippy with the chocolate. Awesome!

Did you use the max of 5 pounds of chocolate? Or did you refill? Curious to how long it will last with a large crowd like yours. I'm thinking about splurging for Chocoley's Just Melt It! No oil required! :] Thanks, Leslie

The Rival CFF5 Chocolate Fondue Fountain was what we used at our wedding reception, which had about 60 guests. It worked beautifully all night. We started with five pounds of chocolate in the machine, and had another five pounds as back-up. We used Paramount Crystals rather than oil, so as to avoid diluting the flavor of the chocolate or having to add a lot of unappetizing-looking oil in front of our guests. I'm not sure how much of the back-up chocolate we ended up using, but I know we didn't run out and had some left at the end of the night.

We had one at a church gathering with ~100 people. It started to sputter (running low on chocolate) after at least an hour's use (prob closer to 1 1/2 hrs). It was in continuous use the first 45 minutes, and still was quite busy after that. Made me come looking for one (It was a Rival).

Fitting 3 people on each side would be a tight squeeze but is possible. You could then seat one person at each end but they'd have no leg room as the table legs would be right there. I would think it would be much more comfortable to seat 6.

I thought I'd have 200 people at my wedding-we invited almost 300, but had about 175. The cards maybe filled up half the container so I think it will fit quite a few.

based on how you would use it. I occasionally cater large parties so needed volume. Get the size that will let you use it completely

We use ours in an outside bar and it is plenty loud enough. Not sure if you are wanting to use this just to play a song / songs during the ceremony (which should be fine) or wanting to use it for the reception party (def will not be sufficient). If just wanting to play some background music or a special song during the ceremony it should be fine.

I have used this speaker and microphone several times in a very large room with 50 people. It should be powerful enough for a banquet hall with 80-85 people unless the acoustics are bad. I don't recommend plugging into the same electrical outlet with a laptop and projector as that could produce static.

No, because we have been using ours and it would definitely be good to fit four people or max. 5 people. I think 7 people all at once will be too much.

I haven't used it yet. But I think it will hold 100 or more. It is very pretty and I know that it is going to add to my daughter's bridal shower.

It should be for all 15 yes. If they don't send all 15, contact Amazon. This happened with our wedding and they were able to fix it.

It depends on the size of your group. I think it would work great for a small group of 5, but not in a large conference room with people far away from the speaker.

I used mini cup cakes and I had 120 of them. There was plenty of room to spare. I think it could certainly hold at least 80.

wont recommend this for wedding. unless you have a very nice table, the legs of the table will be exposed.

Yes, I think you can, it is big enough for one or two people, but not big enough for over 3 people.

Hi,I have used it in large conference rooms with up to 20 participants. The key is to place it in the middle of the room. The speaker volume was good. It will not allow for additional mics.

We used it in a church meeting hall with over 100 people and the sound carried fine. I am sure that it would be fine for a larger group. No special equipment needed, however we did plug it in rather than rely on the batter. Have had it over a year and seems to be working fine.

Hard to say. I had 100 guests and put it on my desert table. I had a lot left over.
