Urgh!

in May 2012 Weddings
So my RSVP deadline was yesterday (Monday) and I still have 28 people who have not RSVPed....every SINGLE one of them is from FI side of the family who pitched a fit over invites anyway. They were constantly asking when I was sending them out in JANUARY, I sent them out the last week of February. Everyone knew the date in case they needed to request off work.

Pretty much non of FI family is coming, and a couple of them have even posed the question of, "why do I need to send an RSVP if I'm not coming?" Seriously? Have you EVER been to a wedding? I am so beyond frustrated with his family right now it's going to take a week in Hawaii to calm down enough not to throttle them all! Lol

I keep reminding myself, "Breath in, breath out, 25 days...."

    I have the same problem, was missing 30 people at my RSVP date.  I'm at the point now where I'd loooooove to see my non-responsive guests (after multiple contacts) show up to my wedding and have no place to sit and no meal to eat.  I don't usually feel joy at other people's embarassment, but in this situation I would.  I don't care if that makes me a terrible person, so be it!

    That has been my personal favorite response as well. People practically demand invitations, then when you ask where their RSVP is they say "oh, I'm not coming so I don't know why I would take the time to send it in." Oh, you mean that pre addressed and stamped envelope that I've paid for? Idiots.

    I've had so many people "RSVP" by texting, emailing, calling FI's mom, saying it in passing when we see each other at a gathering... it's rediculous :P One of FI's uncles said "well, I'm coming, there, that's my RSVP, why do I have to send that little mail thing anyways?" FI's mom tried to explain to him that we need a paper record of it so that we can have it all together and that the envelope was already stamped and he said "I live in the country, I don't go by mail boxes often"...we never got a paper RSVP from him:P

    good grief.

    Yeah. It's super annoying. My RSVP date is Friday and I'm still missing 53 people, 43 of whom are my family/people I invited. WTF, people! Get it together.
