Alkoch, did you put the rsvp right on your invitation? I want people to rsvp to my website as well, but I wasn't sure how to word it...what did u say for yours?

WE LOOK FORWARD TO CELEBRATING WITH YOU.

 

PLEASE RESERVE YOUR SPOT ON THE BEACH BY FEBRUARY 1ST 2010

I included RSVP options (y/n), email addy, # of people, a little comment box and I left space on the back where I will put who's RSVP it is, so that I know who is RSVPing and not just numbers

 

I actually made my RSVP a little folded card to fit everything on it nicely.

One more question on this.....my wedding is in early July, though I plan to send my invites out by the end of October...when should I have people RSVP by? although we expect about 30-35 people...we sent out STD to EVERYONE who is invited to the AHR- like 208 people. I can't just send invites to only the people I THINK coming to mexico, so I'm sending them to everyone. I want people to feel like they have the option of maybe deciding on Mexico even up to the month before the wedding..but at the same time i want to know a 'number' in late spring so I can plan for goodie bags, etc. I have lots of out of state people so not everyone might decide to use my travel agent.

Anyway, sorry so wordy...just want an idea about a rsvp date.! thanks!

You could always ask for an informal RSVP....we did that for our postcard STD's...we're getting married in May but asked for the responses by November and just said it's not set in stone but will help with the planning.

Thank you Tilly- not a bad idea...

If there is a plated dinner choice I would put it below the yes RSVP...which makes it easier to check yes and than the dinner choice...

Hope that helps

Hey everyone! We're having our guests RSVP via email, but I'm wondering how I should word things if I want them to RSVP to either our wedding in mexico or AHR. any ideas? At this time we have "please RSVP via email by Nov. 30th" followed by our email address... is it too much to assume that people will know to RSVP to both the wedding and the reception? how do I word this?

Also, if I'm not sending my invites out for another couple of weeks and our wedding is in April (I know, a little late with the invites but it took FOREVER to get our date confirmed), what is a good date to ask them to RSVP by?! HELP! thank you!
