122... yes... 122 responses I am still waiting for and today is the last day
I highly doubt when i get home from work i will find 122 response cards waiting for me! I am giving everyone until Friday, and then let the phone calls begin!
I am hoping that out of the 122 responses we get a lot of Nos... or else I am in big trouble with my catering hall

Re: Why cant people just respond?
my wedding is in 3 days and we STILL have missing RSVPs. After trying to reach them and having no luck, we decided not to give them a seat at the reception.

Re: Why cant people just respond?
It is so stressful b/c i want to get things done like the seating chart and the place cards and i have to wait for these people to just write their name and either check YES or NO

Re: Why cant people just respond?
You invited too many people!
People can't be trusted. That's just the way they work. Sorry lady!
I hope you get some no's! Hey if they all say no I am always available as a seat filler! I told Dana not to take Jared and just take me. For some reason she didn't like that idea...

How much can Russos hold?
We overinvited also but room can only hold 180. We still need about 20 more no's

Re: Why cant people just respond?
I say call on your due date if you still have missing responses. Don't give extra time to see if a few more come in the next few days. You set a date, and if the people are late, you have every right to call and find out what's going on.
My due date was 10/1. After I took in the mail that day, I printed out my list and made my parents, his parents, him, and me contact those who had not yet responded. And we said how the due date was today, we did not get their response, and we needed to know if they're coming, and if they could still please mail the response.
We actually had a ton more Yes's!!! So it's a good thing we called and straightened it out now.

Re: Why cant people just respond?
Did you meet your minimum yet? I guess you can delegate people to start calling or emailing guests
I think it's just a rite of passage all brides have to go through as part of the planning process

Re: Why cant people just respond?
I was a bridezilla! on the due date (which was last friday) I called and asked people 'sill question... you are coiming right?' and I flat out did that to one of my bridesmaids who didn't even have the manners to manage to get that one right. A bunch of the people that didn't send them back right away were the yes and close friends- I just don't know what people think- seriously!
A lot of them said AH!!! i put it in the mail! (yesterday) so ok I felt a little like a bridezilla but then the people I did that to on Sunday and causal were like you'll see our reply is in the mail we mailed it yesterday! SOOOO CASUAL ! not an OMG i'm sorry it's late... nothing it as if the due date meant nothing! and this couple did the how marriage thing they should know better!! So now it's 1 week past my dead line there's a couple that have been lost in the mail in the US somewhere b/c people sent them back awhile ago as for some well they just still haven't replied so rude!!!!!!! and one will not call me back and give me an asnswer gesh!

Re: Why cant people just respond?
our flower girls' familes haven't responded yet, and neither have most of our aunts & uncles! We have 2 more weeks until the RSVP date, and I hope we don't have to make calls...I HATE that!
