Nobody is Rsvping

Ugh!! This is so frustrating. What was the RSVP deadline? I would probably start this weekend.. can anyone help you? We decided FH was going to be in charge of bugging people on his side and I am going to do mine. Divide and conquer!

The RSVP date was August 1st. Wedding is September 13th/14th. So we aren't too far past the deadline but it's still a little irritating.

Yes, definitely see if you can get help! And the sooner the better in case you can’t get ahold of people. If this were me, I’d loose my mom, FMIL, and a couple of aunts on the list and they would regret not RSVP-ing 😉

That is so frustrating I don't get why people can't timely RSVP -_- I would give it a few days and then start

I called the day after our RSVP date! We were waiting on over 60 people (out of 225) so I just texted or called every single group the day after!

Start calling, I'm sorry that stinks

I would start calling

I would wait 2-3 days to give the stragglers time to come in. Then split the list up between you, your FH, and y'all's parents (if that is an option). We invited 245 guests. Approx 127 RSVP'd by the deadline, and we had to do approx 104 follow up calls. So annoying, especially because after all that we ended up with around 34 NO SHOWS!!!

I feel you! I am having the same issue though I still have a few days before the deadline. I would probably start contacting people the day after deadline.

We started contacting people the next day. We had like 50 people to reach out to and didn't want to waste any time. We also delegated and had my dad contact their guests and my MIL contact their guests and H and I each contacted our own guests. This was the text we used:

"Hi (insert name here)! H and I are just reaching out to make sure your wedding invitation made it to you and (insert name here). We are getting close to our date now and need to submit our final numbers to the venue. If you're able to attend, please let me know. The last day we can add people to our count is (instead date here). If I don't hear from you by then, we will have to assume you are unable to attend and we will miss you at the wedding!"

Oof. That's rough. I would give it a couple of days though. Our RSVP date was Monday and Wednesday we got like, 5 back, 2 yesterday, wouldn't be surprised if there's a few more today. Fortunately there's only a few people we flat out haven't heard from at all. Most are people who have said they're coming or not but we haven't actually gotten their RSVP in the mail yet.

We have the same wedding date, September 14th, with an RSVP deadline of August 1st as well! So far 57 have RSVP'ed, 2 declined, and we are waiting to hear from the other 61. I have been getting more responses today and yesterday than I have the past few weeks (folks like procrastinating).

We are planning on making calls tomorrow, and following up with people this weekend when we see them. Next weekend and the weekend after we will keep following up as needed. Good luck!

What I found was that some people who received an invitation and spoke to me about the wedding after assumed that was their RSVP. I had to go in and manually accept or decline for so many people. It is frustrating though because what did they think the RSVP was for?

Oh boy. Mine deadline was yesterday. Ours were coming through email, not mail so there was nothing to wait on. I have started reaching out to people today and have gotten a lot of responses back. I did mine through Facebook so that I could see that the messages were actually seen. Gave them a new deadline of the 5th and let them no that no response again meant that were not being counted so there is no confusion later. Good luck!

Hunt them down girlfriend!! May the odds be ever in your favor.

I would given it one week post deadline then starting calling or texting people. I broke the list down he will be in charge of his guests and I am taking care of mine. Our deadline is on the 7th.

Your date has passed, its time to start hounding them. It should be especially easy for them if it’s online.

WOAH. I know everyone has people that don't RSVP, but sheesh that seems like a ridiculous amount. I would definitely start calling now. You don't need that stress as your day approaches.

Call now. I had 40/108 actually RSVP. Nobody RSVP'd after the deadline.

Date twin! (September 1st). I gave our guests until August 20th because the venue doesn't need a final count until the 1st. But I am already starting to panic because we only have 30 people attending so far - out of the 94 invited.
