Ok or overbearing?- updated question

Would it be okay to send our OOT friends and family an email to let them know that our hotel block closes next Wednesday? 

FI and I realized last night that while we included our block information on the website, we forgot to note when it closes. The wedding is taking place at the hotel so it would be be the most convenient place and I don't want folks to miss out on a good deal (if they're interested) because we didn't provide them with all the information. 

Thanks!

Secondary to this- should I send an email to all OOT guests or just the ones who have RSVPed at this point? Some of the non RSVPers we know are coming but others we aren't sure about. And we only have 30 out of 76 back at this point as the block closes a month before our wedding.

    I think it would be ok as long as the tone was just an FYI tone.

    It would definitely be an FYI thing; there are a zillion hotels nearby and if they want to stay somewhere else that's totally fine. 

    @pinkrevenge‌ Thanks for the wording suggestion; I think I'll steal that. :)

    Yeah, as long as the tone was casual, it wouldn't bother me.

    What Pinkrevenge said. I like that wording; casual, friendly, clear that it's only an FYI for the sake of the guests. I would personally appreciate the reminder if I were one of your guests. I'm sure everyone has their own stuff going on and really may have just forgotten or not realized they needed to hurry up and book a room.

    If your RSVP deadline is in the future, I'd email everyone (minus those who already responded they couldn't make it).  Most people don't RSVP until the last minute and it might be a good reminder in a not overbearing way that they also need to take care of that (I'm a last minute gal and always let those deadlines slip away from me).

    If your RSVP deadline has passed though, then I'd just do only those that responded yes.
