Re: *~* November Is Our Month *~*
I am doing ok, but getting REALLY annoyed with RSVP's.October 1st was our cut of date for sending them back, we have been hunting down 20 people for a week, and then suddenly this week, people who couldnt come, can now come, and people we put down as no are coming.
LOL.. I am so confused!!!!

we haven't gotten to our rsvp date but this is my biggest annoyance!!!!! are the people who are changing their minds the ones who didn't mail in the card?
if so maybe ppl dont mail in the card because they want to be able to decide like that day if they are going??? in which case...super annoying.
this is why i do not want to add people!!!!

Re: *~* November Is Our Month *~*
The following has happened a lot lately...relatives of the groom call up the groom's parents and tell them they're coming, but don't send in their RSVP card.Has this happened to anyone else? If so, how do you handle it? I am not putting anyone down on my spreadsheet until I receive their RSVP card.

we haven't dealt with this yet...but in my situation...i would be supppper weary of what fmil says!
i would want to wait until the actual rsvp came in or try to speak to them directly.

Happened to us with a few people. I just wrote their names in on an index card. It kept my sanity because I knew we would never receive the response card.

i completely feel your pain... our cut off was the 10th and we had like 56 ppl we were waiting on. We finally got it down to about 30 ppl we need to hear from.
most of the people we got no's from now are people who said they were def. coming.. so i'm just hoping we make our minimum of 125 now.. (which we should cause we are at 118 right now)...
but there were people we've had saying for a yr that they put in there vaction day, or were so excited, def. coming.. and so on.. who now cant make it..
and people who we really thought weren't coming who are now saying they can!!!! It's be the bane of my existence for the past 4 weeks..lol

Very stressed out...I'm in the process of getting rid of my stuff to make room for FH, while at the same time plugging away at wedding planning...is anyone else stressed out, or is it just me?
Oh girl it is not just you! I am FREAKING out over here...what a horrible week! To wrap it up...
Today was my RSVP deadline and we are missing 36...that's 72 people!!!!!!
My florist burnt to the ground this weekend
My BM had a baby last month and is much bigger than we EVER expected and has to have another dress rush ordered in 2 weeks! Still haven't found a place who can do it!
After spending 6 hours making my aisle runner my pastor tells me NO AISLE RUNNERS under any circumstances
I am completely stressing!
