Do yourself a favor and whichever wording you choose have a line where they write the number attending.

So many people who are invited with a guest forget to put 'and guest' or their guest's name on the RSVP. You assume only 1 is coming and then they show up with 2.

I'm so glad we had a line for the number attending. We have one person coming without his wife (who he is marrying only a week prior) -- we would have otherwise assumed he meant 2.

So far, it's saving us a lot of headaches.

thanks so much! this was the main thing I was going back and forth with. I also plan to number the RSVP with the corresponding guest list number.

Re: Ugh I'm still stuck on RSVP wording! Help w/poll!

I definitely recommend having a line that says 'number attending'.. that has saved me, because most people didn't write their guest's name on the rsvp card so if there were no line for the number attending I'd assume they were coming alone (I've come to realize that even when you spell it out for them, some people still have no clue how to fill out an rsvp card lol)

I did this:

Re: Ugh I'm still stuck on RSVP wording! Help w/poll!

We did something very similar to #2, we added the line so that they could tell us how many are coming, we have alot of 'and guest'. So far it's worked out...
