So, Etiquette question. When sending RSVP cards, should you send one per person (i know when you send invitations you usually send it to a whole family so its usually more than one person.) Or, have it where there send back the RSVP and contact them later to find out is is everyone or just the one person? Or, have it on the cards to include up to four people? What are your thoughts and/or opinions?

For a family you would write their names on it and they could just write back one rsvp with the amount of people attending

RSVPs, just like invites, are sent 1 per household (unless there's a child over 18, they get their own - if you want to do it that way). To make things easier, you can always write on the RSVP "We have reserved "# of seats" in your honor" or something along those lines. Then they can tell you how many will be coming. For example, ff you're inviting Bob and Sally and their 2 kids. You would say "We reserved 4 seats in your honor". Then they can tell you how many, if not all, will be attending.

I would have an area to write names for who is RSVPing and send one per household.

One per household, just like invitations.

Only 1 should go to each household with the number of seats reserved for the family on them.

This was a whole thing for me too. It should be just one invite. Here's a break down. I hope it helps. Also, anyone correct me if I am wrong about any of this.
If it's for one person, you address it to one
Mr. John Doe
If it's for one person with a plus one of their choice, you address it
Mr. John Doe & Guest
If it's for a couple who isn't married or a married couple with different last names, you address them by their names
Mr. John Doe & Ms. Katie Blue
If it's a couple who is married, you address them by their married name
Mr. & Mrs. John Doe
If it's for a family and everyone in the house hold in invited, then address by family name
The Doe Family
If it's for a family and not everyone in the household is invited, then address the family and include the children who are invited
The Doe Family & Brian
