We are finally having our wedding celebration after canceling last year due to Covid. Our invites went out a couple weeks ago and we had a number of guests RSVP right away but response rate has dwindled. Our deadline is Monday (so in 5 days) and we are still waiting on responses from more than half of our guests.
I know its typical for about 15% of guests to decline during non-pandemic times and we are expecting a bit more than that to decline overall, but I'm just curious if there is a number out there for how many guests typically wait until the last minute to RSVP, or what percentage of guests usually need additional follow up (after the deadline) to get a response from.
