In Reply to: did you read the above article someone posted? - SM - lookie inside my post, try to get it! *S*

My DILs family puts "regrets only" after the RSVP as they don't want people "bothering them" on the phone. I hate this, why invite people you don't like? I love hearing from people. I've been on the other end when 20 people showed up without responding. Hate "regrets only" - lazy!!!

Are anyone's children into the "Twighlight" craze?
The book series by Stephanie Meyers?  It's getting bigger than Harry Potter.  My 14 year old and her friends are absolutely crazy about the books and now that the movie is coming out it's even worse.  The movie is out Friday and she already has presale tickets.  I haven't had time to read the books at all, but I have to say the movie looks like it might be really good.

I didn't know I was being rude all those times I didn't RSVP when I was not coming.  I thought it was just necessary if it was a yes. 


You know, if I'm too busy to come to the party, I'm generally too busy to make the phone call and risk getting stuck on the phone.  I didn't ask to be invited, so I  shouldn't have to call to say I'm not coming.  There is no obligation there.  You all are silly.  :)


I don't RSVP either because
usually the people that send me in an invitation pretty much know I'm not coming.  Like you said, I didn't ask for them to send me anything.  They should know if they don't hear from me, I'm not showing up.  Anybody who knows me would know right away if I was coming to anything they were planning.

I don't RSVP if I am not going.  I do RSVP if I am going.  I do think it is rude to not RSVP and then show up.   That would screw up the event planning process for sure.  Sorry people, but I have too many other important things to do than spend my time calling about all the things I don't have time to attend. 


 


To All Who Don’t RSVP,
well bless your heart....Here in the south we say that when people do not know any better.

When an invite says RSVP
It's good etiquette to respond even if you can't make it to the event, right?

Having a debate with hubby about an invite I sent out for a party, and now I feel like I should track some people down to see if they even received the invite. He says they probably did but can't make it. I think that's kind of rude to ignore an invite if someone went to the trouble to mail it you and included an "RSVP by" date.

Very rude not to answer an RSVP
If you are attending or not, should show some form of manners. People go to the time and expense to plan for an event, surely have the decency to give an answer.
Always RSVP - I hate it when people don't (sm)
because I always tend to plan for them in case they show up.

My college roommate was from a different part of the country, and she would always write "RSVP Regrets Only." SHe would assume you would be there if she didn't hear from you.

I try to always err on the side of being polite and respond either way.

it IS MOST rude to ignore any RSVP....got it?

Why would you send in an RSVP card
for dinner. The answer I would give is NO. I got an invitation to a cousin's wedding, someone I never heard from, her mother (paternal aunt), never heard from her either and I laughed and threw the invite in the garbage. Why would you even think you had to go or even respond?
