Is it polite to send out a friendly reminder to people who RSVP'd to the wedding?

Don't do it. I am going to my dad's wedding tomorrow and if he sent me a email last week reminding me of the wedding I would laugh and think it was stupid and a waste of time. People know when your wedding is, where it is, and can check the weather themselves. Besides, you have enough on your plate a week before the wedding. Don't add more tasks.

Although a nice gesture, I wouldn't do it.

I don't think I like this. Mostly as a guest perspective. I think if I rec'd something like this after already RSVP'ing I would be annoyed by it.

I keep the mailed invite with me to know the date & time, i don't care for wedding websites.

you probably can't change numbers with the vendor and you'll just stress about cancellations. people are grown, just relax and enjoy!

I don't think it's a bad idea. We had a small wedding. 50 guests RSVPed yes. 15 of them did not show up. 5 of them had legitimate reasons bit the other 10 spaced out and forgot about it. I think if you word it well and send it individually it will be fine.

Okay sounds fair enough! We had a friend get married last month and he says one of the biggest regret was the address for their wedding. He said he got at least 20 calls (wedding was 125+) from guests who had no clue where it was again. They had an idea of the time (between 2-3 right?) and bugged him like crazy. To the point he had to hand over his phone. He joked and said, "Should of just sent another invite with the info a week before, so people didn't have time to lose it!" LOL. I'll let FH know he's brilliant in his own way, but not wedding related

They are adults. I am really appalled at how irresponsible people can be.

I agree with Sarah on this one, nothing wrong with a little reminder. I don't really think it is necessary to give a forecast of the weather though, unless it was going to be drastic like rain expected... (it is amazing how many people do NOT check the weather even before a special occasion), and I do think people can forget things like the address or time. It does amaze me how irreresponsible people can be. I think its the fact that people get "too busy" in their lives they just forget things.

Or you can say " Hey xxxx, I'm really looking forward to seeing you next week at our wedding, if you have any questions on the location/time, you can find all that info at our wedding website.

Ehhh polite- probably not. But if you know your friends, you know your friends so I can't say I would blame you if this sounds like something that needs to be done.

I would probably be super passive aggressive about it and shoot an e-mail out to some friends and say something like- a lot of people have been asking so just a reminder it's an outdoor ceremony See everyone at 5!!

Once again- probably not polite and i wouldn't send it to everyone... but like you said a few people aren't the most responsible

@Kathryn Maybe a "Call anyone but the bride" contact sheet with venue information, a local tailor, cleaners, barbers/stylists ...anything anyone may have a question about to avoid them calling you the day of. I'll be sending one out to out of town guests and putting it on the website.
