Our RSVPs are entirely online. The RSVP deadline has just passed, and we're at about a 40% response rate. That said, some family members that haven't RSVP'd online have indirectly told me they're coming by asking for tips on where to stay in the city. My issues are #1, I don't know if everyone in their party will be coming (for example, are both aunt and uncle coming?), #2, I didn't keep track of everyone's text or comment, so don't have 100% certainty on my recollection of who has talked about it with me, #3, we're having a picnic the day before which I'm assuming not everyone who is attending the wedding will go to but I'd know if they RSVP online, and #4, the online RSVP has a question about special dietary needs that I'd like answered (although, I guess that's kinda on them if they don't RSVP).
Phew. With all that said, is it rude to send out a reminder email, even to those who I know are coming but didn't formally RSVP? Here's the text I'm thinking:
Hello family and friends!
[Fiance] and I
are trying to firm up our head count for the wedding and pre-wedding picnic and check on
whether anyone has special dietary needs. If you have a moment, could
you please formally RSVP online at: [url]?
If you have any questions/difficulties, please let me know!
Thanks,
[Our names]
