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 gave them a week. Still some of them haven't responded to that. UGH,
If they don't respond by the end of the weekend I am putting them down as not coming.

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.

how sad...
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....
