rsvp card suggestion

You can change it


We have reserved __ seats in your honor. __ of __ attending.

I just had the line with name(s) not the number.

View Quoted Comment So did you just basically have:
Name: ____________
Accepts: _____ declines: ______

View Quoted Comment Oh we had tons of stuff on our card because everyone was traveling. I tried to keep it as clean and efficient as I could but we needed a lot of info.

Thank you, this is great! With dietary restrictions, did people usually fill out who had it? (Example, one guest is vegetarian but their husband is not)

View Quoted Comment No they didn’t specify, but no one wrote anything we didn’t already know about. Plus we had a buffet so our goal with that line was to make sure there were enough options for someone who couldn’t eat what most people were eating. We had a few vegans and shrimp allergies.

We made ours two sided. We put the number invited on the front and the rest on the back. We didn't leave a space for dietary restrictions because our wedding planner assured us that those who have them will write them in.


Also, based on my experiences at work when we order meals for meetings, anytime there's an option for dietary restrictions, people write in their likes and dislikes, which is totally different! My bff said a lot of people did that for her wedding, too. I didn't want to give people that opportunity, lol.

View Quoted Comment That makes sense! We're doing a buffet but have a vegetarian plated option available but we need to give our venue the count for that ahead of time. How do you recommend wording that on the invite?

This is what we did for our RSVP cards. We just got our first 5 back in the mail today (sent them out last Thursday)!

View Quoted Comment Sorry, super off topic , but where did you order your rsvps from? They match almost perfectly with our invitations. I’ve been looking all over for something similar 😀

View Quoted Comment Ann's Bridal Bargains! But they come as a set with the invitations

View Quoted Comment I like that, thank you!

View Quoted Comment Ohhh ok! Thanks 😃😃😃

We got them from Vistaprint! They matched the invitations we got.

View Quoted Comment Nice!! Thanks 😀

I know people have had issues with extra people RSVPing, but every invitation I've gotten has had a pretty simple RSVP card, and I think most people understand that the invitation is only for those listed on the envelope.
This is what we're doing.

Honestly, I would keep it. Unless you are rounding up and using the reserved seat numbers only, your caterer and venue will need to get a final count of who is attending so they can provide enough food and chairs.

View Quoted Comment Sorry for the super late response, lol, but I see you haven't gotten an answer yet. We have plated dinner options, but maybe instead of listing beef, chicken, etc, maybe list buffet and vegetarian plate instead? We also had a separate line for each guest so we can keep track of who wants what. A bit nontraditional, but works for us. (We only had a few addresses with more than 2 guests, so that's why we could design our RSVP cards this way. We put two cards in one response envelope for the few we needed.)

I love that you have everything covered on your RSVP! I've been debating nixing the whole line about vegetarian/vegan meals and just putting a line asking for dietary restrictions.

I would have been all "Yes, I would like a grade a ribeye, mashed potatoes and salad. Thanks!!" No, I am kidding - I have no dietary restrictions. This girl loves to eat, lol!!!

Best wishes!
