Im getting quite annoyed now, i sent out daytime invitiations to over 50 people and have had about 8 replies and i wanted numbers by next week. I am going to have to chase everyone up. My FIL said they dont do invitations on his side of the family they just hear by word of mouth and turn up to parties but this doesnt work for a wedding so i sent invitations to them all. In a few weeks time i am going to have the same problem with the evening guests. Surely when you recieve a wedding invitation it is common curtesy to reply whether your attending or not even if it is just a phonecall!

same here hun,,my reply date is saturday and im havingto chase people around!!!,,i think its rude and lazy of people
CommentAuthorMrs fairytale
thats really rude, u would think that people would use their brains and know that u need to know numbers, i will defo be chasing any one up that does rsvp, god help them xx
cant wait to renew my vows, love my hubby sssssooooo much xx
I think I'm gunna put on my RSVPs that if I haven't heard anything by 3 months before their names will be scratched off the list. I will have enough to deal with without chasing people up for RSVPs!!!!
You would think that commom sense would kick in and people would reply but I have learnt the hard way that some people just have no sense of anything at all, lol. xx
I can't believe we've actually done it

the most annoying part is,its my neighbours who cant be bothered to reply,,they know iv got seating and catering numbers to sort,but oh no,,iv just put out a facebook message saying they have till saturday then il assume they cant make it,,im not chassing them,why the hell should i
CommentAuthorginge23
You go Tiggs lol. Iv told my close friends they do not need to reply as I know they will be there but its my dad's family and a few of H2B friends im not sure of and we can not just assume. I have another couple I would love to invite during day so need to know beofre sending evening invites xx
CommentAuthorx~Hails~x
This is what im worrying about as well. So im going to send the invites 6 months before wedding and tell them i need rsvps two months before for catering numbers. Also so i can do table plan/name cards etc. If i dont hear back by then, then they wont be included in the wedding breakfast so no food, no seat. Think im going to be quite strict when it comes to this cause i dont want to be worrying about numbers so close to the wedding. Ill be stressed enough with other things lol

It's the bit I'm dreading. I'm sure whenever I've had invites, I've gone straight back to them as I know I lose stuff if I don't turn it around fast!
Put 'em on the B list! If they can't be bothered, you shouldn't be...
CommentAuthorMrs Daltry
i just cant get over how lazy people are,iv told people they can email me,call me,facebook me their replies but do the bloody listen nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo,,iv had enough,il be telling them that iv not counted them for seating or food as they didnt reply
CommentAuthorJessica
I have changed my status on facebook telling them to reply if they havent already. If not my mum and dad will be phoning round the family and if we have no luck il just count them as a no. Im wanting to ask some of the evening guests to join us in the day if others cant make it x
CommentAuthorginge23
Jessica Im the same I have more from my evening I would love to come during the day. I put my email address on to. xx
CommentAuthorMrs Daltry
isnt it rude though how people can just assume they can just show up without giving us and reply
CommentAuthorginge23
Totally rude Tiggs. I know when I get an invite I usually try to reply within a week which I think is a bit long. Im hoping some get deivered to my mum and dads today as it is there address on invite. I cant wait to call at lunch time to check but I know I will prob be dissapointed. xx
CommentAuthorJessica
Very rude, but they can be sure anyone who just decides to turn up wont be staying.. Im also worrying that some of my h2bs family who were sent evening invitations will turn up to the daytime. Like we need any more stress just weeks before the big day, we have table plans and name places to order etc.
CommentAuthoremma1234
I have had the same problem not one RSVP back and will have to phone every one so i ask myself why.........i should of just phoned every one to ask them to come and saved my money on the invites
CommentAuthorginge23
Jessica surely they would not turn up if not invited? Lol Emma so true would have saved on invites just calling. xx
CommentAuthorMrs Daltry

CommentAuthorginge23
Iv none ceremony ones yet! I did just post invites last week but I thought with putting my email address on I would have had some replies by now xx
CommentAuthorMrs Daltry
iv just looked at my list and its 6 replies im waiting on,4 from the same family,one from a next door neighbour and one from the other side
CommentAuthorJessica
Ginge honestly they really would just turn up. They probably havent taken much notice on the invitation of which part they have actually been invited to x
CommentAuthorMrs Daltry
