This aligns with the usual timeline you\u2019ll be working with to alert your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">caterers<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wedding venue<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and other <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wedding vendors<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">final numbers<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Working backward, this means you should <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/when-to-send-wedding-invitations\"><strong>send your <\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>wedding invitations<\/strong><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> out no later than 6-8 weeks before the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">big day<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. If you\u2019re hosting a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">destination wedding<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, extend that timeline to 3-6 months before your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wedding date<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This gives everyone (especially <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">out-of-town guests<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">enough time<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to check their calendar and sort out <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">travel arrangements<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">childcare<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You don\u2019t have to follow this timeline strictly though. You might want to ask for RSVPs earlier if you absolutely need the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">final numbers<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> more than a month out. You could also have a shorter <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RSVP deadline<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> if you\u2019re planning a wedding on a short timeline or if it\u2019s simply a formality and you know your loved ones will be there.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How Can Guests Be Encouraged to RSVP <\/b><b>on Time?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019d all love our friends and family members to send in their <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RSVP cards<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or give you a call as soon as the invite lands in their inbox (or mailbox).

This can help them be ready to RSVP yes or no as soon as they receive your invitation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>2. Share All Your Wedding Information<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One reason guests might not RSVP in a timely manner is that they\u2019re not clear on whether they can attend or not. This often happens when they don\u2019t have all the details they need to make a decision.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure your <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wedding-invitations-with-rsvp\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>wedding invitations<\/strong><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> clearly state the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wedding date<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, time, location, and exact venue. Include a dress code, along with information for anything unique about your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">big day<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 like the theme or unusual entertainment. It\u2019s often too much to include all this on the invite itself, but you can use Greenvelope\u2019s details panel to share all these little details with your loved ones.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>3. Set a Clear <\/b><b>RSVP Due Date<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your guests can\u2019t know if their <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wedding RSVP<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">on time<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or late unless you set a deadline. Clearly state when your guests should RSVP by on your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wedding invitation<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or include a line requesting they visit your <\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wix.com\/blog\/wedding-website-examples\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wedding website<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for details on when and how to RSVP.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">close friends<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or family members that are always late or can never seem to stick to a deadline, you might even want to publish an earlier <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wedding RSVP deadline<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> than you need. This allows you more flexibility and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ample time<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to gather your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">final headcount<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and deliver it to your venue and vendors <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">on time<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>4. Provide Advice on How to RSVP<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Help your guests to RSVP by instructing them on how they should do it. Some couples may prefer a text or a phone call, while others only want <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">guest RSVPs<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by email. Decide on how you\u2019d like to handle RSVPs, then share this with your invited guests.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re using Greenvelope\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>digital invitations<\/strong><\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it\u2019s easy to manage RSVPs and your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">guest list<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Guests can submit their RSVP response directly from the invite, and it updates automatically \u2014 meaning you don\u2019t need to worry about keeping your own list of who\u2019s coming and who you need to send a reminder to.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>5.

Make it as easy as possible for them to RSVP by giving them a seamless experience with Greenvelope.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your guests can open up your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wedding invitation<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, review all your event details, and submit (or update) their RSVP in one place. They can do this on their desktop or on a mobile device, so it\u2019s easy for them to update you on their status wherever they are.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>6. Give an Extra Reason to RSVP<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It can be tough to get everyone to send in their <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RSVP cards<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, even if it\u2019s as easy as clicking a few buttons. For the hardest to engage, you might need to include an extra sweetener \u2014 like being able to submit a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">song request<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for the DJ to play or guessing what your secret entertainment will be.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With Greenvelope, it\u2019s easy to set up a fun question like this for your guests to answer when they RSVP. Collect all the answers, and use this to build your ultimate <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wedding day<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> DJ playlist, award a fun prize to the closest guesser, or select someone at random to receive a special gift.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>7. Send a Friendly Reminder<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes your guests will be eager to RSVP but simply forget or lose track of time. Pick up those <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">last-minute<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> RSVPs by sending a reminder that the deadline to submit their response is coming up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Word this in a way that matches your personality. Keep it light and airy, make a joke about turning up late, or opt for a more sophisticated or formal reminder that the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RSVP date<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is approaching.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>8. <\/b><b>Follow Up<\/b><b> with Them for a Final Time<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even with all the incentives and easy-to-use systems, not every guest will RSVP as expected. It\u2019s time to send them one final reminder before the deadline approaches.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let your guests know that if they can\u2019t RSVP by your final deadline, there\u2019s no guarantee there will be a space reserved for them at your wedding reception. It\u2019s wise to keep some extra table space free, but depending on how many <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">late RSVPs<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> you get this may get used up.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How Should <\/b><b>Late RSVPs<\/b><b> Be Handled?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RSVP deadlines<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> exist for a reason. Chances are you need to let your vendors know how many people will be attending so they can make the right preparations for your special day. Sometimes an RSVP will come in late though, and it\u2019s important to know how to handle it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you receive a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">late RSVP<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, let your vendors know as soon as possible. They may be able to alter your table plan, adjust their <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">catering<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> numbers, or update your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">final guest count<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It\u2019s always worth enquiring to see what\u2019s possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In some instances, it might not be possible to accommodate your guest on such short notice. There may be room for them to attend the ceremony, but no space at your seated reception dinner and no special meal reserved for them. In moments like this, do what you can to accommodate your guest (or ask your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wedding planner<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to handle this) and continue to enjoy your celebration.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Streamline the <\/b><b>Wedding Guest List<\/b><b> Process with Greenvelope<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s not always possible to get every single RSVP in by your deadline \u2014 especially if you\u2019re inviting a lot of guests. But with these expert tips you can get closer to your goal of having everyone RSVP <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">on time<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and hand over those <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">final numbers<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with confidence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wedding invitation<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> itself can influence how many people RSVP by your deadline.
