Don't worry, you'll get some more tomorrow. And you'll have those procrastinators who will wait until tomorrow to drop it in the mail, so you'll prob get some in the next few days too. And then yes, you'll have to call the rest!!!

Re: 29 days to go.. 1 day to RSVP date and...

definately normal! we didn't have so many outstanding by our RSVP date but we still have 10 unaccounted for with 35 days to go!!!!

We were unable to do a 'B' list either so we are going to be dealing with the numbers we get!!!!

You have to keep in mind that some will drag in after your response date. The USPS is terrible

Have the bridal party start making calls

I found out via my sister (MOH) that one RSVP either got lost in the mail or at the house for my friend and her family (4 people). She is calling all family members and friends from my side since the hotel block expires soon and the RSVP date is coming up.

Re: 29 days to go.. 1 day to RSVP date and...

sounds about normal to me. i think ppl just don't understand how important the RSVP is!!

i'm sure you'll have to break out the phone book for the no-replys!

I know exactly what you're talking about. I'm telling everyone to elope.

We're way under our minimum too. I seriously hate people right now and I don't like this feeling.
