Before hand I heard from a bunch of former brides, and the general rule of thumb was: some people won't RSVP no matter what method you use. We didn't cater, so we didn't need an exact number of heads.

This is why: We had a very small budget, and a pretty casual wedding over all, so I really wasn't too bothered with being perfectly formal. For the website, I used the Knot, which meant that I had an entire website with our story, photo, additional details, RSVP and guest book. The answering machine for the phone number was always on, and gave extremely simple instructions. One of my invitation inserts gave the phone number, and web address, and a date to respond by. I did not do traditional card reposes, but had people RSVP either online or by Phone. That can be a hassle for some with the RSVP cards. It puts me in an awkward position to have to check up on people like childrenĪlso, a friend of mine lives on an indian reservation, 3 hours away (a treacherous mountain drive) from her post office. Where have manners gone?ġ0 days from now, I will be calling the non-responses to ask if they are coming. When I say younger, that includes folks my age - 34. Not too complicated, right?Still, some haven't RSVPed.Īs with my bridal shower, younger people seem to risregard the importance and consideration of RSVPing to parties. I know darn well people are looking at it bc they tell me how awesome our site is and even sign the guest book page, which is RIGHT NEXT to the RSVP page.

I think people know how to use phones at least by now! Instead, I put in small font at the bottom of the invite to RSVP online (at this address) or call (my phone #) by (this date). Since our wedding will be semi-formal I made my invitations and opted to forgo the traditional reply card/stamp to save paper and postage. I'm thinking that this may be a nice alternative (would still give people the option to mail) for those who are tech-savy!! Thanks!! Has anyone used an online RSVP system? If so, which online system would you recommend. It wasn't until after the fact that someone let us know that there was an online RSVP thing! I ended up sending him a Facebook message saying that no one knew what the heck to do, but that we would all be there. My cousin and his wife did the online thing, and my entire family was late in RSVPing because we didn't know how to do so. Reason being (and I'm a graphic designer, so I'm tech-savvy) is because a lot of people don't get the online RSVP thing I didn't. Honestly, I would probably opt for the printed and mailed RSVP cards.
