This is why I didn't mail my invites out sooner....I felt if they still had a lot of time to respond they would put it to the side and then forget about it! Regardless I expcet (becuase of what I am reading on this board) that people will not RSVP

We've been getting about 4 RSVPs per day. I hope it picks up though!

I sent out my invites about a week ago and I already got over 20 responses back. Almost none of them are from my family though, they're all procrastinators.

Tell me about it. Neither of my parents have RSVPd yet and I sent the invitations out 3 weeks ago!

I had my shower on Saturday...it was really such a nice day! I got so many nice things - it was overwhelming but so nice at the same time.

Hi date twin....hope you have as much fun at your shower as I did at mine!

One of my bridesmaids gave me all my thank you notes addressed and stamped...all I have to do is write them out and mail them. I thought that was a great idea!

i dont think it matters because i have read a few different ways to stuff them, i actually did the same order but with the invite on the bottom and all other pieces on top, minus the tissue paper, cuz i read that somewhere else, don't worry non brides don't think about the correct order of suff in the envelope
