RSVP-people who havent responded?
I sent out invitations for my Baby Shower two weeks ago and I have had two people call me, the others told me through other people or when I asked them about it. There is still 5 more days before the rsvp deadline, but my question is-WHY IS IT SO HARD FOR PEOPLE TO REPLY THE WAY AN RSVP CARD SAYS??? My mother in law and I are the ones listed on the card but i have had people rsvp through my grandma and my mom. its so frustrating, i have so much other stuff going on, why do people think i have the time to hunt them down for an rsvp??
When should i start calling people that havent replied yet? Should i wait until the deadline has passed or should i start calling them this week? the shower is in three weeks and i need to know how many people are going to be there so we can plan out a menu. thanks so much
Wait until after the deadline. Sometimes people wait because they are checking the schedules…may have other things pending and they cannot give you an answer yet. So wait until the deadline, then call. You will find that as the deadline gets closer, more people will respond so there will be no need to call…they like to wait till the last minute. There are a few people who will not do as the instructions ask and yes they are very rude. As for the people who have responded thru someone else, I would call them also and just say “My grandmother told me you were coming, but I just wanted to verify in case she mis understood…you are coming right?” I would plan for at least 75% of the people you invited to show up…that is a good starting point. You can adjust the amount from there.
Good Luck!!!
