They'll come in. I thought the same thing but then I only had to track down about 4 people. I was freaking about my minimum and I ended up with have the exact min lol which is kind of better because then I don't have to pay anymore.

Yeah, it's absolutely the worst. I still have two weeks until my date, so I'm hoping these are all last minute people.

Mine are finally done and over with. We invited 140 (about 20 of that is FH's family that lives in illinois -- lots could not make it) and we wound up with 120 with 1 uncle from TN who is not sure yet due to his health. Don't worry, they will come.. a lot of people I had to track down on facebook, some said I totally forgot to mail it in but of course I am coming lol

I thought my least favorite part of wedding planning was doing the guest list. Rsvps are the worst. I'm waiting on like 60!!! I don't understand how hard it is to check a simple box.

People are so incredibly rude....our groomsmen never even sent it back....then yesterday someone decided a real estate course was more important and dropped out. And I'm 8 days away!!
People who aren't coming just never sent it back....***!

Re: RSVP stress

You guys should all get a bunch the week they're due especially much closer to the due date. Some people will actually even mail it on that day.

I made my RSVP date 5 weeks from my wedding and originally felt bad and that it was unnecessary but boy do I feel that was the best idea I had. Once our date hit and I didn't get your response I just contacted everyone and asked them to mail their responses back. Then closing in on a week after I just asked who was coming. It took my one cousin even a week after that to let us know if she was coming :/ I had called her multiple times and even texted her, my mom finally reached out to my uncle (cousins dad) and she texted me back the next day saying of course she'll be there. Unfortunately that is how she is though :/

WOW these stories are crazy. I mail my invitations out the end of September with a due date of November 1. What is the big deal, there is a friggin stamp on it!
I know for me, I just wanted to make sure not to put plus one and come alone to my friend's wedding but at least I communicated with her. GESH people!

RSVP stress

Ahhh I remember that awful stress. I threw out all the RSVP cards yesterday with my MIL giggling about it with me as I cursed at the cards! We had major issues. Many I had to track down, many RSVP'd Yes and didn't even bother to show! I was about 25 under the minimum. I don't want to stress you at all but really.. start sending those B lists right away. Unless you know your crowd.. if you know they are all coming and are just lazy on replying then wait. Best of luck :)

They're coming in twos and it's really annoying me! I don't know why people who keep telling me they're coming can't send it back already. I want to start making my tables!
