Only RSVP by post?

Bubbles2014 · July 2013

Just checking I didn't make a huge mistake. Our RSVP cards only have the option of posting - No email address or phone number. We are sending a self addressed stamped envelope with the invites and RSVP's, so all they have to do is write who is coming and pop it in a post box.

Is this OK, or should I have given more options? I figure most people have our numbers, and those who don't have my mums number, so they can contact this way if they really prefer to.

This is fine. We gave our website in addition to a response card and only 2 people RSVP'd that way. Everyone else preferred the snail mail.

You're fine. I always prefer the old fashioned RSVP card. So easy to just fill out and dump back in the mail.

I prefer the old-fashioned RSVP as well. We didn't give anybody any other options, either.

Most people prefer the card anyways and those that don't or just lose the card will find another way to contact you NBD.

Snail mail for the win! I think it's easier just having one option, personally. Choice makes me lazier.

You're fine.

Just remember, RSVPs will come back any which way. People will phone, email, tell you in person, whatever. Keep a spreadsheet going so you don't have to rely on a stack of cards.

Just be grateful to those who actually respond. The ones who can't be bothered are a headache.

I don't think you need another option. People should have your contact info already if they're invited to your wedding. If they'd prefer to email or call you, they know how.

No options needed - you're keeping it organized and streamlined. It will make your life so much easier. No need to worry about getting RSVP calls while grocery shopping and and forgetting who's coming and their guest's name and that they're allergic to water etc etc.

This is what's done most typically anyway.

If you give too many options, I think it'd be easier to lose track of things. One way of replying means everything stays in one place.

I actually really love the only option being good old-fashioned snail mail. I could definitely see my grandparents or some of my parents' friends being confused by responding online or forgetting to call with too many options. A simple drop-it-in-the-mail is the perfect choice for everyone!

Thanks for putting my mind at ease, ladies!
