Re: since people cannot manage to
I said I was going to give people a week after the RSVP date to start calling, but within that week I received all of the remaining RSVP's, so I didn't have to call anyone.

Re: since people cannot manage to
We waited a few days after the date. Then I sent an email to a few close friends/family members that I knew I could do this with. The others straggled in and my mom called a few.

Re: since people cannot manage to
I would figure out when you need to came the final payment. If it's the first week of OCt? then I would give them 2 more weeks & then call.

Re: since people cannot manage to
I would start calling and emailing now. It's sad that even with a stamp on the damn thing people find it hard to respond on or before the due date.

I was just going to ask this question!!! My RSVP date was the 1st of the month...I am going to give it this week and than I am officially calling (ok a little lie I made my mother start calling her friends bc she is my mom and I can!). I know I have some time but I don't have time to start figuring out my seating chart the day before the wedding :)...this is what pushes me over the edge. I forget who wrote the RSVP Poem on here, but it should be put into each envelope for people to read!

Re: since people cannot manage to
Start calling now and don't put them down as not coming. I did that with one of my RSVP's because I called/emailed, etc and they never responded. Guess who showed up at the wedding....

Re: since people cannot manage to
My RSVP date is monday Sept 8th and we still have about 35 outstanding (that's 70 people)!!
I am going to wait until the weekend (5-6 days after the deadline) and start emailing people. I am going to tell them that the reception hall needs our final count in a week and we can't make any changes after that. We'll see.

Re: since people cannot manage to
I gave it about a week and started calling. Guess what? A couple of the people still never extended the courtesy of a return phone call...how 'bout that! I just found out a couple of nights ago that the last person we were waiting on is not coming...what was so hard to put the card in the mail?

Re: since people cannot manage to
MAybe I am weird, but I am not calling anyone. Let the RSVP date come and go.. I am not calling you. I will just take it that you are not coming, and that is fine.
I know my family and friends that I invited are all coming, so I am not worried. But I will be damned if I have to be responsible for these types of people who cant even put a card in the mail.
And if/when they show up to the reception, and there is no place card with their name.... Oh WELL...
I am responsible for everything of that day going right, i just cannot be responsible for guests like that.

Re: since people cannot manage to
I am a week away from my RSVP date and my mom said she is gonna start calling the very next day!!! I told her to give them at least a week, but I guess she is sort of impatient and can't wait that long. I say you should call, especially if you are a week past your date.

Re: since people cannot manage to
UGHHH I feel your pain. I think its incredibly RUDE and disrespectful that people cannot put the damn thing in the mail. We are about a week past and still missing a few. The worst one -- his mom and stepdad!!! I mean obv I know they are going but come onnnn.
I told my Mom one phone call...if they dont tell us by tomorrow (when we are doing the seating chart) then that's it...I'm considering them a no. So sorry... too much other stuff to worry about.
Esp when you sent save the dates like a year beforehand!!1
