We were also thinking of selling addiotnal rafflee tickets for those who want to have a chance at the prizes but wont come to the event

Answer 1

It depends on the cost of the tickets.  If I were you I wouldn't

talk like "for those who want to have a chance at the prizes

but won't come to the event," because you want your upcoming event to be a success, don't you?  By tallking

what your doing down you might not have to worry about

additional raffle tickets.

Answer 2

Rule of thumb--50% of people will show for reception (wedding, birthday, etc.), a person BUYs a ticket and it's 75% show up, because it's of personal interest or you.
