So, I have had like 5 invitations sent back by the post office because the people have given me the wrong address or moved. I double and tripled checked each address before I sent the invite. Yet I still get it back. Do I resend it to a new address or just call them and personally fill in their...

So, I have had like 5 invitations sent back by the post office because the people have given me the wrong address or moved. I double and tripled checked each address before I sent the invite. Yet I still get it back. Do I resend it to a new address or just call them and personally fill in their RSVP? I am so irritated.

    It is proper etiquette to call them and confirm the address and then resend the invitations. If you really wanted to invite these ppl, a RTS wouldn't cause you to flake so easily on them.

    It literally would have been faster to pick up the phone and shoot a text or phone call than to post on WW. It happens a lot to people. Just ask for the new address or drop it off if they are close to you.

    I would definitely check, or if you know they are correct just drop them back in the mail. I swear every year I get my grandpa's Christmas card returned and my grandparents have lived at that address almost as long as I can remember! The post office seems to be making mistakes more and more often these days!

    I would get the correct address and resend them. You still have time for them to send back the RSVP.

    I just told FH that our task for the next month is contacting all of our guests and making sure their addresses has not changed. This happened to me with about 3 or 4 save the dates. I confirmed addresses 2 times. I sent them back 2 times. After that I didnt any more.
