African American Weddings

Have you guys heard of this

Hey Ladies, I am going to a wedding on December 2, 2012.  So yesterday I received the cutest little thing.  It was almost like a save the date, except it was an RSVP confirmation card. I had never heard of it but thought it was a cute idea. I would include picutres but I forgot to bring it to work today.  But if anyone wants pictures I will email it to them.  Anyway so it was a post card.  The front had a picture of the couple and the back said something to the effect of thank you for RSVPing for the wedding.  Then it said Ranyatta Casey you and your guest have been confirmed as attending the wedding.  THank you in advance for coming and I will see you there. initially I thought what is teh cost of this. So I talked to the lady at my job who is the bride and she said she did them on Vista of cours for teh $17 dollar deal. I thought it was a good idea, especially since i really need people to RSVP something MAJOR!  I cant plan for oooppsss i forgot but I still showed up.  I might have to pull my tracks out.  Anyway do you ladies think that is a good idea or a waste of time and money.  your thoughts....

  • That does sound like a cute idea especially if you have a large guest count and you know what type of people you dealinh with. Me personally wouldnt do it. My guest count is 88 ppl not incl BP and I already have it in my mind to call those people who dont send the svp card back so there isnt a oopps I forgot but I here anyway. Cause if you not on my check in list you aint getting in til after dinner is served !
  • sounds interesting not sure if i want to do that 
    but i am having issues just thinking about the guest list...

  • I have 250 people invited to my weding party.  This might be an idea for me. Especially since I can just print them at work.  So its basically free.  I have plenty of free labor to help me with this.  My guest list is already making my head hurt because people think they can bring a guest and what not and some people think they are invited and well...you arent. SO I need people to know YOU CANT BRING A GUEST or YOU ARE NOT INVITED!

  • Hmm, great idea. I just purchased 100 TY postcards from VP and was thinking about what I would do with most of them. I'm thinking I would only use 50-60 TY cards. This may work, even with my 80 guest list, just to ensure people know "TY, I can confirm RSVP for You and You (not BooBoo and Anna you Voicemailed/emailed me about)!"

  • Very good idea

  • I think I can use this because of the kid situation. I know some people are going to write in kids that weren't invited so I can verify in writing who exactly is invited.
