no rsvp dates on wedding invites?

Has anyone heard of not having an RSVP date on their invites? I know someone getting married that is doing this bc the invite woman told her its 'rude' to put a date and looks tacky, etc etc. and people should know to rsvp soon.

I think this is crazy!?!? Anyone hear of this? doing this? if so, did it work out well?

Just wondering.... thanks!

That is one of the craziest things I have ever heard -- I totally agree with you! People use RSVP dates on everything, since when is it rude or tacky??? What is rude and tacky are the people who blatently ignore the date and never respond at all, until you call looking for them. Crazy....

Phew! thought i missed the boat on this new idea.

Glad we all agree to go with the RSVP dates :) we have better things to worry about than waiting around for people to respond!

That just doesn't make any sense at all!

The fact that she'll have to hound a bunch of people at the end negates any 'tacky' savings in the beginning...

Im gonna go on record as saying that is the single most stupid thing I have EVER heard when it comes to wedding planning.

Yes. THE MOST stupid idea I have EVER heard.

Peapl do NOT know to RSVP. They are stupid and rude and have no idea how much brides rely on that.

Seriously???

I have NEVER heard of anything like that before. I don't care if its 'tacky', unless the bride wants to be pulling her hair out there has to be a RSVP date!

I actually was invited to a wedding that had online RSVP and they didn’t put a date on the little card they included.

She invited 250 people to her wedding and had to hound down about 200 of them. So no, it didn’t end well. Her wedding is next weekend and she’s still waiting on 20.

My friend didn't have a RSVP on hers, but she only invited about 50 people...so I'm assuming she regularly speaks to them and knew whether they were coming or not. It seems ridiculous in any other situation.

Who ever told that girl that is not very smart.

It's not tacky at all.

That's insane its hard enough to get people to RSVP when there is a date. I'm sure its next to impossible to get them to do it when there isnt a date. I don't think it tacky to have a date I think its brilliant since people wind up have to track people down anyway you atleast have a start date to track

So its kind of like 'feel free to call the day of the wedding and tell me your coming'
Like you dont have to put in a final count or anything!

a friend of mine whois muslim could not put them on her wedding invites because in her culture (she was afghany) it would look rude.
but she had so many problems with not putting one on there that i would never do it!

People don't 'know' when to RSVP (esp not 'soon'). This is just plain stupid.

Seriously, the bride is not under enough stress before a final count is due? Ridiculous!

Re: no rsvp dates on wedding invites?

i agree w/ everyone's comments - that literally defeats the purpose of sending out invites if you will have NO idea who is attending!
