Speaking of family members, for relatives who haven't RSVP'd, talk to whichever of your parents is closest to them to see if they've heard anything before you make the call. Is your mom's cousin dragging her feet? It might be easier to get an answer if Mom makes the call instead. The same goes for the guests of your parents: A little nudge from your parents might be all it takes.

I Accept Show Purposes. Have you ever received an invitation to a wedding , dinner party , or another event that included an RSVP request? If you have questions about what it means, why someone would request it, or what to do, you're not alone. It's common for people to have RSVP on the invitation so they can get a head count for planning purposes. When someone schedules a dinner party or other event that requires planning based on the number of people who will attend, they need to make sure they have enough food, place settings, and seating for everyone who comes.
The proper thing to do is send it back with an acceptance or to decline as soon as you know whether or not you'll be able to participate. Not responding makes it difficult for the host or hostess to plan and can keep you off future guest lists. Not responding can cause confusion and possible embarrassment later. Invitations of all types may request an RSVP to let the sender know whether or not you will attend.
Read the invitation to find out how to do this. Most formal invitations will include a small card that you can fill out and mail back in the enclosed envelope. Many informal invitations will have a telephone number or email address with reply instructions. You were so kind to invite Kent, the boys, and me. My niece is flying down from DC that week, and our extended family will all be entertaining her. Thank you again, and I hope you have a fantastic time!
Make every effort to attend milestone events. If you miss this one, you can catch the next. However, when someone is celebrating a milestone, make every effort to join the celebration. These are major entries on the timeline of our lives. The fact that guests are actually responding to your invitation, even if it is with a no, is always gracious of them.
However, people tell me it happens way too often. If you as the host would be happy to have the others join, you can extend the invitation to them as well. However, it would be a joy to meet your sister and her daughter! You were kind to extend the invitation, and the person declining was kind to acknowledge your invitation. Now you know that you can invite someone else, or that you just got some extra wiggle room in your party budget.
According to a new survey, your RSVP could cost you much more than the standard price of a wedding gift. Plenty of perfectly acceptable reasons exist to RSVP "no" to a wedding—you could be strapped for cash or under obligation to attend another fete—yet a recent survey shed some light on the real cost of failing to attend a friend or family member's nuptials.
The unfortunate truth: Passing on a wedding invitation could set you back much more than the cost of new champagne flutes.
