Is Our RSVP Card Confusing??

We sent out invitations on Monday and just received our first few RSVP's back! I'm so excited, it's starting to feel so real.

We sent out invitations on Monday and just received our first few RSVP's back! I'm so excited, it's starting to feel so real. Unfortunately, none of the first 4 we received filled out the response card properly and we had to call each of them to ask what entrees they wanted. Instead of initialing each entree, they just put the number of entrees in each category. Now I'm starting to get nervous that our RSVP card is too confusing. It's too little too late now even if it is, but does this card confuse you?? How would you fill this out?

    It says initial... we've gotten invitations like this before and we were able to complete it correctly.

    Before reading your post, I read the RSVP card as if I were a guest responding. It's pretty clear to me! I would definitely put my name next to the Wild mushroom ravioli. People probably just didn't bother.

    We worded ours very similar. My mom filled hers out tonight and did it incorrectly at first....but she admitted she didn't read it haha. I'm expecting some similar to yours. It is what it is. I don't find it confusing at all.

    Honestly i was a little confused, doesnt make sense right off so i can see how putting numbers just seems sufficient enough. But your guests and others may not know why it is important to out initals

    Well you said initial so initial. People won't read it though! You'll probably get more checks, numbers, then initials. Ssooooo annoying.

    I wish I had thought to put x seats in your honor instead of _ of X. I like that better. Oh well. Invited went out yesterday!! Also, I agree your invite is clear but it's an unusual request so if someone fills it out in a hurry they might miss it

    We had the same issue and just contacted the guests as soon as the responses came back. People definitely don't read instructions.

    This is so clear no one should have issues, but as you know, people never follow directions
