Response card wording (English enthusiasts encouraged to join in)

This is specifically for those who are indicating the number of seats reserved:

I've seen many of you discuss having '___ seats have been reseved in your honor' on your response cards to avoid those people who just pick a random number when they respond to invitations.

Here's my dilemma: What about people who are not being invited with a guest? I can't bring myself to fill in the number '1' when the sentence says, '_____ seatS HAVE been reserved....'

What to do?

If you know your guest list already, then you know how many people are only being invited by themselves. You could get RSVP cards that say ' ____ seat has been reserved in your honor'
