When should guests RSVP?
Bailee, on November 19, 2016 at 8:06 PM

I'm trying to put together my wedding invitations. When should my guests RSVP by? I get married May 27th, 2017. So should I do it by April 1st? Is that too early? Just a month before? I'm not sure!

Should I expect only half of my guests to accept the invitation?
Stacy, on July 5, 2013 at 2:35 PM

41% of Guests Have RSVP'd. Out of that percentage, 47% Have Declined. They still have 2 weeks to reply. If this continues we'll have one empty reception. What kind of turn out did you receive?
