Calling all November 2009 Brides!

I like the way we did it, we sent out the invites in like Jan of this year, had an april deadline to put the deposit down for the wedding, and on Sept 14th the hotel deadline is due. We did land only through the travel agent, booked 6 flights with points, and bought the last 10 plane tickets ourselves. So we know exactly how many people are coming. Then they will just pay us before they get their tickets! Works out great! 18 in total coming! Its so perfect!

Thanks for all the compliments girls!

I am SO annoyed too... my RSVP date was today, you wouldnt think so though! I still have people telling me they are looking, etc. I just want to know! OOT bag stuff is impossible to do like this!

Hi guys - my rsvp date is Sept. 15th. I like the rsvps I'm getting back with guests where people weren't invited with guest. It doesn't make me mad as much as it just makes me laugh. Not everyone knows wedding etiquette, do they? I guess we are all too knowledgeable by now!

Just had 2 more book. Yikes my budget is going down the tubes.

I'm in the same boat...... I have so many people on the fence as well.... My Rsvp date is the 25th. I gave my guests an OCT 1st deadline to book their rooms through our link at the resort. The "real" deadline through the hotel is Oct 6th. I know my family is full of procrastinators so I thought I would give myself a buffer in case I get some last minute stragglers:)

Can I just say that I am soo pissed that my reception site just cleared a check we sent them in July. It didnt bounce or anything but the freaking check cleared on Sept 2 and the date on it was July 15. I asked could we just pay over the phone with a check card but they only wanted a check, but they held on to it for over a month. Thats so annoying. I had totally forgot ab it to be honest.

That is annoying. With all the wedding things you're having to pay for the last think you want is money just sitting there. If that happened to me I surely would have spent the money by now.

yeah that sucks Ashley . ekk

Ek that does suck. It might have something to do with their bank and having to clear a US check? I know internationally it takes some time sometimes. But still that is a bit ridiculous, I would've forgotten about it too!
