for those who have passed their RSVP deadline...

How many went unanswered/unreturned?

We invited 223 people (so about 105 invites with guests and WP kids).

We haven't heard from 11 people.  4 of them have reached out and have some sort of reason they need an extension, which leaves 7 totally unknown.  Our deadline was Saturday and Wednesday we are starting to contact people. 

My sister said that 11 sounds pretty low to her, so I was happy.  Just wondered how many you have to contact.

we had about 25 people who hadnt rvsp'ed but most answered as soon as contacted, so it hasnt been a big deal. However there is one large family (7 people) who hasnt answered who is kind of a big deal since they are split across 3 tables (because of ages etc..). Getting an aswer from anyone in that family is like pulling teeth and because it effects multiple tables in he seating plan, its far more frusterating then if someone who is just a couple says no.

I think we were missing about 16 or so. They were all couples and easy to get a hold of. I started contacting people about the day after our due date. This was because our final count was due 4 days after my deadline.
Everyone was easy to get a hold of and had their answer, so we didnt have any issues thankfully!

Our date isn't until this Saturday and we have 25 left to RSVP, most of them we know aren't coming...

our RSVP date was this past saturday

we were missing about a quarter of our guest list until the last week.  i sent out a reminder via our private facebook group the monday before RSVPs were due and that got a few more in.  we ended up having to contact probably 8 families that received an invite, but we were able to get all of our numbers finalized today.

We invited 209 and were missing 30!  Seriously, people.  And this was 2 days after my deadline.  We are still waiting on 18, and I'm getting pretty annoyed.

My deadline was Saturday... and I was missing (I think) 11 people?  I got the answer for one of them at work today, another couple I know is coming, because they booked a hotel room.. I just need to know what they want to eat! 

There are 3 that we're pretty sure won't come (one doesn't fly and the other couple has had a serious illness in the family).  There are two families on Fis side that we haven't gotten a card from, but FMIL told us that she knows one of the families is coming..  she offered to call them.  I will have her call both families, and that should do it!
