African American Weddings

RSVP!!

About 39 outstanding for RSVP!!  I just don't understand why people just can't send it back.  I mean damn we put a stamp on it.  Just check accept/decline & # people attending out of the # we reserved for you.  The deadline is not until Saturday, but really all these people! It started off great now I am like what is wrong with you people.  I know of one person that got an attitude because I only reserved one seat for him and from what others have told me he said he's not coming but he hasn't sent the RSVP back.  REALLY??  Just send them back our feelings wont be hurt if you don't come.  I have some other people that really want to come that we didn't send an invite too!  I feel like texting and sending messages to people now.  Should I wait until after the deadline or can I start now?  I am getting a little impatient.  Then I wonder if some of the postcards RSVP got lost in the mail.

Re: RSVP!!

  • i would wait until after the rsvp date to send out texts, calls, and invites.

    btw, in the recipients defense, I gotta own up to my own shame. I had NO IDEA why those little cards were so important until i was in a wedding a couple years back. I didn't know how necessary it was for a head count and food purposes or anything. I never sent mine back. I was like this girl know i'm coming and toss it out.

    My aunt did this at her wedding. I am doing the same for mind.  Except she made room for the ones that showed up and didn't RSVP after everyone was seated. SMH...PEOPLE!

  • Lol at Tash. Yep I was the exact same way. Never filled them out. So im sure most of your guest are thinking the same way. Im including a separate card in my invites stating RSVP IS REQUIRED.

    I got impatient and already contacted 3 people by facebook or text before I even seen your post.  lol.  I can understand that people don't know the process, but I put instruction cards with all the invitation so they all should know what <strong>WILL </strong>happen if they don't respond!

  • I feel you. My first date was yesterday. Out of the 89 invites I sent out.....I have received responses totaling 36 people. Yep. 36. Cool with me. I'm trying to keep it at 150. I had a bunch of others that I sent out this morning. My mom is like well don't worry about it.....if we go over it'll be ok.
