When sending out your wedding invitations, it's important to include an RSVP card, even if it is an informal or casual event. RSVP cards will take away some of the headache of planning a wedding because you will know exactly how many people to plan on, so you won't waste any money on no-show guests. Although the etiquette and rules for RSVP cards have changed over the years and now many variations exist, there are a few general guidelines and tips to keep in mind.
First, know that there isn't one correct way to word a response card. There are more formal and informal wording choices, so go with the style that best fits you as a couple and your event.
Secondly, the wording of your response card will depend on what type of information you need from your guests. For example, some people may choose to leave a space for guests to mark either regrets or acceptances. Other brides and grooms may want people to specify how many guests in that party are attending. Even further, you may choose to write in the number of guests you are expecting from that party, which may help curb problems with guests assuming their friends or family are invited when they are not.
Lastly, don't forget to include a way for guests to reply other than by email. You can include a telephone number, and if you'd like you can also include a stamp and return envelope that is already addressed.
Putting together your RSVP cards for your wedding can be easy and hassle-free if you use them to your benefit.
