Since there has been discussion of whether or not it is okay to request a vegetarian or vegan meal at a wedding, I wonder how many people have offered a choice to their vegetarian/vegan guests.

Our wedding reception in the US was entirely vegetarian with lots of vegan options. It was made by a local caterer in Maryland. Not a very big reception - about 60 people since most of my husband's family is not in the US.

No vegetarian options. Non alcoholic sparkling drink was available for my Baptist/pregnant friends, but no other special dietary things at all. I had a small wedding over 14 years ago, in the MidWest. As far as I know there were no vegetarians present. I am certain none of my friends were and also that none of dh's relatives were and 99 percent certain none of my relatives were either. I suppose there is a slim chance one of my cousins had become vegetarian at some point in between the last family meal we had with him or her and my wedding and we didn't know it, but I think it very unlikely.

Our reception hall included a vegetarian option automatically, we did not have to specifically choose one.

Not that I recall. It was a small wedding with mostly family and close friends. Wouldn't have surprised me if some family member approached my mom and she took care of it but I don't think there were any vegetarian needs.
