No Response Rsvps

I would definitely try to reach out to the people who haven't returned an RSVP. It's possible that they either thought they mailed it back and just forgot, or maybe they sent it back and it got lost in the mail, or they totally lost track of time and forgot to return it. It's annoying to have to remind people to RSVP, but I would reach out to say something along the lines of, "I hope this message finds you well! We still haven't received your RSVP for our wedding, so we just wanted to send a friendly reminder to please let us know ASAP whether you will be able to join us or not. If we don't hear from you by [date], we'll have to assume you aren't attending. We hope you are able to attend, and we hope to see you soon!"

Unfortunately, you'll need to call or text all of your guests who haven't responded yet to get their firm answer. I would not assume they aren't coming. Many have probably just overlooked the deadline or misplaced their invitation. The RSVP process is the worst!

I’m currently doing the same thing. While it’s a hassle it’s more important to have an accurate count than to not have a brief uncomfortable conversation. Maybe you should ask FH to help.

You need to contact them or you are setting yourself up for disaster if you assume none of them are attending then half of them turn up. I haven't sent invites yet, but I'm building in a 2 week buffer between the RSVP deadline and the day my final headcount is due for me to reach out to people who don't reply. Because I know there will be people who don't.

I would contact, it’s possible it got lost in the mail.

You should contact everyone you have not heard from about 3-5 days after your deadline This gives time for any that are running late in the mail to arrive.

You have to call or text to find out.

Don't text, call and ask them if they are coming. If they hem and haw in ANY way, say, in a nice tone, "Well that sounds like a no to me, and that is okay. I need to get the numbers to the venue so we will catch up after the wedding."

Yep you definitely have to follow up on each individually. It was so stressful to me but it had to be done as there are a mix of people who simply forgot to RSVP both yes and no. I even had someone say they were definitely coming and "maybe" bringing a guest.... I had to be firm that I needed a response by xy date there as it wasn't the type of wedding with extra seating.
