So I previously posted about my RSVPs. I am having a destination wedding in Jamaica. Many of you brides advised me to follow up with those who do not send back the RSVP card I provided with a stamped envelope. My wedding coordinator needs the amount of guests who are coming. I followed up with 3 people who did not send in their cards. I have only heard back from 1 of them. It is a friend and her husband who are invited. My friend stated she needs to make sure that her husband can get off of work for the wedding and that she needs to see if the resort still has availability. I told her to reach out to my travel agent if she seems to not be finding room availability on websites such as bookit.com. She said she would do that. How much longer should I wait to get a response from her? I sent the wedding invites back in March and asked for a response by end of April. I understand some jobs need 90 days to see if they can get off of work (Which we are at 90 days now). But I just feel like they are being very relaxed and I am running out of time to wait to give an answer to my wedding coordinator. My friend was someone from day 1 was telling me her and her husband are coming and even asked me when they can start making payments with the travel agent, before I had even spoken to one. But then never even made an attempt to contact him. My travel agent lets me know when guests reach out to him, so that is how I know. I am fine with her just telling me her and her husband cannot attend. I rather she just tell me instead of constantly dragging her feet. I don't know what to do at this point. I mean, I know the RSVP date just past, but 3 months before the wedding that is out of the country, you would think by now you would make more of an effort if you really want to try to come to the wedding or maybe thats just me?
The other 2 who have not responded are friends as well. They didn't even acknowledge my attempt to contact them to find out if they are coming. Should I try again or mark them as not attending?
