rsvp Cards with the save the Date!

View Quoted Comment I hear y'all. But I didn't have that issue at all.

View Quoted Comment LOL Cristy, I don't have that problem at all. Also, ppl do their weddings how they want. Ppl book weeks in their local city and 20-40% don't show and that's with them RSVPing.

I think you're missing the point of a save the date. You do send save the dates with the necessary info. Location, time, etc. That way people can start making arrangements if its a destination wedding or if its not a destination wedding, people will know not to make plans the day of your wedding. I had a few guests go ahead and book their hotel after they got save the dates. Most waited until the formal invitation. I get that you were trying to save money, but it is a little rude.

It was nothing rude and ppl loved it. Never once got a terrible feedback

Very few people actually tell the bride to her face that she is being rude. But everyone here on WW have no reason not to be honest. What you have described is very confusing and it seems your main focus was on saving a dime versus treating your guests well. There are other ways to save money (and be proud of it) without doing it at the expense of your guests.

View Quoted Comment Good morning, there was nothing rude about what I did. Maybe because you don't see my SAVE THE DATE so you don't understand. To each its own. It is not norm to you because you was taught " Well this is how it goes", if you was to see hoe I did it, it was actually helpful for my guests. I had no issues and at least I know who are going to be in attendance. Everyone is doing/planning their wedding their way. Like, I think it's rude that children are not invited! But that's up to the Bride I think kids make the party and great for pictures because they are the first ones on the dance floor. I think it's rude to invite some ppl to the ceremony but everyone is invited to the reception vice versa. I also think it's rude that guest don't respond at all to the RSVPs but I'm not having that problem. I think the ones on here ranting are conservative and my way actually worked. The ppl that I know are very blunt and straight-forward and again there was nothing said.

By the way, would you plan Disney Trip or an excursion 3 months before going???? I don't it unless you're loaded. Many ppl plan trips 6 months to a year in advance and if you are working you put your time in ahead of time. My wedding is not an upscale elegant wedding it's actually a trip so ppl needed to know so they can be there and save. My wedding is not local.

*doubt. I apologize for the many errors, I'm on the road and responding through the car speaker. I will manually fix my errors when I get to my destination.

Yeah the system will not let me fix my errors. Thank you all for many of your inputs and concerns. I cannot wait for October 19th and I will post here how everything went here :-)

I am full of prayers along with the word of God and with many blessings there is never a mistake and everything happens for a reason. It is common sense and reasoning that make things work. I pray you all have everyone show up that RSVPd with your Formal Invitations.

Have a good one!

OUR WEDDING IS ALSO PAID OFF IN FULL ALONG WITH THE HONEYMOON!!!!!!!!!!

ANOTHER WAY TO SAVE IS TO GET A HEAD START ON YOUR WEDDING. WE STARTED 1 1/2 AGO ;-)

Some people are still paying on their wedding, honeymoon, gifts, favors and more up to the day of the wedding- smh

A lot of people are divorced and still paying off their wedding, using their 401K, Loans, Maxing out credit cards (smh), hoping Dad or Grandmother (along with giving up her fancy pearls) is paying for different things or the whole wedding.

The ones that can not make it to the wedding are throwing me a Bridal Shower, some of which on this Forum are not having Bridal Showers and scared to ask their Mother or MOH.

If it make you feel better I have 2 Matron(s) of Honour and a Maid of Honour along with a Bridesmaid- I know you freaking out right!? LOL, the point is, it's your wedding do what pleases you :-)
