Answers to both Rather:
1. Wrong Lame DJ that would show up and play the songs I would prefer over vulgar ones.
2. Half the guests not show up because they got the date and time wrong.
I did have my husbands brother not show up the day of the wedding since he really forgot the date and called the next day after everyone (including us) left the venue. He was going to bring his clan of friend that weren't invited and not have any food for them neither seating. It saved us the headache of going to all that non sense of a family member not thinking right.

Our wedding was originally 75 people and ended up being 20, so either way 25 extra people is a lot! But it's still better than missing out on half the guests.
Because we had a small ceremony with just our immediate family and wedding party my mom suggested to one of my uncles that he just *happen* to be at the beach around 5 and he'd likely run into us. He got the date wrong and failed to gate crash!
Additional 25 guests. I have no problem kicking people who show up randomly unannounced out. But it would absolutely suck if people I want there are not there, especially at the level where half the floor is empty.
I could handle someone helping themselves to the cake, but we just went through our cake tastings and I NEED some of the red velvet we chose on our day.
Would you rather:
Half your guest list getting the dates wrong and not showing up, OR an additional 25 people show up that weren't invited??

Half the guests ignore dress code for sure. At least they won't be in as many photos as one of the mom's. And both our mom's are way too short to stick in a back row to try and hide their outfit!
Plus sometimes people dressed badly for weddings is entertaining. I went to one where we had a bet on whether a girl's teeny tight strapless (very light pink almost white) dress was going to expose her top half or her bottom half. The buts won that bet.
I'd rather wrong flavour. I may not like every cake but there's never anything that absolutely grosses me out. If I see a messed up cake, I would be so paranoid about how sanitary the handling of the cake was.
Would you rather half your guests ignore your dress code and wear something shabby or one of the moms wear a white dress?
Food > DJ. Unless the food ended up being MORE fancy and expensive than what we originally ordered (we're getting rack of lamb pieces instead of mini wieners?!?). But I agree with Samantha, allergies would be a concern.

Oooh...I think I'd rather find out someone ate the cake before we cut it. At least it'll still taste good! Hopefully it could be spun to hide the damage for photos 🤣
Wrong DJ for me definitely. If someone has allergies then that's worse than having lame music. And with the DJ you can just plug your phone in if need be. My would you rather: Would you rather have the wrong flavour of cake, or find out someone had helped themselves to the cake before you cut it?
