With all this wedding stuff consuming a lot of my free time, and the big day less than 3 months away, it’s no wonder that I’m thinking about wedding stuff right now. Especially since I just mailed close to 70 invitations at the Post Office this weekend. So, now the latest wedding thing to clutter my thoughts is RSVPing, or rather, lack thereof. From talking to many of my friends who recently planned weddings, apparently it is inevitable for a lot of your guests to not RSVP. One of my close friends told me she had to call a ton of friends and family to remind them she was still waiting for the small response card to show up in her mailbox. How hard is it to check “will attend or “will not attend.” Even if you are unable to attend, a response is needed, and quite frankly, it’s extremely rude and inconsiderate to not mail back your RSVP. I know everyone gets busy, but think of the couple making the wedding. I’m sure they are already stressed out enough and have more than enough small details to still work out. They certainly do not need the extra headache of having to call 20 or even 30 people. So do everyone a favor and mail back the RSVP card immediately. If you don’t, trust me, I will not forget.
