September 2012 Weddings

All invitations out!

Finally got the remainder of the invitations out this morning!  About half went out 2 weeks ago.  It wasn't an A-list/B-list thing.  It was a "these need to go out but I only have time to finish half" thing.  I did the OOT guests (and people in the same circles as them) first so they had all the info to make travel arrangements.  I haven't had nearly as many responses as I was hoping though from the first half.  It was killing me because people would sign onto our website and sign the guest book or request songs but wouldn't RSVP (we did online RSVPs thru our website).  Uhh if you are requesting songs you are kinda saying you expect to be there!  Oh well, now that they are all out hopefully we'll be getting more within a week or so.

    RSVP Date: September 1
  • Congrats!  I'm at my RSVP date (yesterday), and we're still missing over 40 people who never sent in the RSVP.  Most we know from speaking with them whether they're coming or not, but it's really obnoxious.  I'd say about 2/3 of my RSVPs came in the last 2 weeks... my invitations were sent 6 weeks ago!

    Anniversary

  • Yay! Congrats!! I think this has been the most stressful part of planning, is waiting for the RSVP's..........some of which will never make is back to me.......
  • Ugh so frustrating!  Why don't people just send them back?  Especially since all of our guests have to travel at least an hour (almost half are two hours away and 1/3 have to get on a plane) it shouldn't be that hard to figure out if you can make it or not!

    All they have to do is write their name and a #..... everything else is provided for  them....... DROP IT IN THE BOX ALREADY!!!!!!!!
  • I'm getting frustrated as well! Not one single person in FI's family (not even the people in the bridal party) have sent their responses. C'mon!!! Just tell me  if you want chicken, beef or fish!
  • I haven't gotten frustrated that much yet but since today is our RSVP deadline I'm sure that will change. We have about 40 that haven't been returned yet. I'll give them a week or 10 days and then FI and I will have to start bugging people!
