So, our RSVP deadline is like... Wednesday... and as you can see by my signature we are still missing quite a few! What was your experience with this? Did you just give them a call and see?

I'm kind of hoping these people who didn't reply yet won't feel guilted into attending if we call them? Is that a weird fear? I think our number right now is great and once it's all said and done I think we will be far over the limit of 75 that I wanted! Eep.

    We waited about a week after our deadline to start calling people.  A lot of people will realize a little too late to the deadline and just put it in the mail.  We had a whole bunch come right after the deadline.

    As for calling people both of the mothers volunteered to call people for me, so I didn't have to make very many calls.  Most of the people who had not RSVP were their friends and I called the few of my friends that hadn't.  I don't think it will make people feel guilted into attending.  They have probably already made up their mind and forgot to RSVP.

    My BP volunteered to call. Honestly you shouldn't have to stress about this. RSVPs will come in all the way up until your wedding date because people just forget. Send people a friendly reminder e-mail/FB message a week or so later then start making calls if final numbers are coming due soon.

    I know exactly how you’re feeling. I sent my invites out way early kind of anticipating that this would happen and of course it did. Since it was all mostly my family who decided not to respond (even though we addressed the return envelopes and put a stamp on it) I had my mom call everyone. That only got about half the responses I still needed so I decided to e-mail and FB everyone else.

    Yep... looks like Facebook is going to be the way to go to track these people down (if they were able to update their status, they must be able to reply to the wedding invite! lol).

    I know I shouldn't be stressing about it, but my caterer makes me feel like I must tell him this week our number!
