If They Haven't Rsvped... Or Booked!

[calgarybride2015]

@VegasBride121314 Can I borrow your MOH?! That is awesome. I just sent my STDs out in early August and it is driving me nuts that people who KNOW for sure that they are coming haven't put down their mere $150 deposit. I feel like they should just make it easy on me and do it I've seen some comments about my resort selling out and now I'm paranoid.

 

We are still 8 months out so I can probably wait until January to start really hounding people.

 

Is June really 8 months out? wow!!!  

I asked my dad if he would come to Mexico for my wedding before we decided on doing it and it was a 100% yes - who was the last person of 41 to book? my dad!   It's just the name of the game!! Hang in there.

Our final payment is coming up end of October. I think I'm going to send just a couple of emails to people that were on the fence to let them know. Everyone else I'm taking as a no. It's definitely a bit frustrating though because we invited about 100-120 people and we've had a total of about 20 RSVPs at all - yes or no! (About 40 booked though haha).

 

I like that postcard idea, Kim! I kind of wish I had done that about a month ago, but right now I don't want to spend money for people to say no :s

We used paperless post to send an email reminder card and that worked really well. Anyone that didn't respond to that, we counted as a No

I would text a nice polite reminder. And make it clear that its ok if they can't come to our wedding so they don't feel uncomfortable. Our wedding website we did with wedding hand has rsvp so most have got back to us, so we are lucky!

This is a good idea. I love paperless post - have used it in the past for a couple of parties.  I like how it seems less direct than an email haha.  I'm going to look at it now

What type of card did you choose?

We just contacted the guests who said they were coming but didn't book yet to remind them that we needed a final head count by a certain date.
