rsvp question

H and I got a mass text about writing our names on the rsvp last night. We were both completely confused and eventually it dawned on me this was about a wedding invite. So we went out and checked our mail and had a wedding invite. Of course we quickly looked at the rsvp card to see what the text was about. Turns out they forgot a space for people to write in their names. 

The question is this, What is the proper length of time to ask a guest to rsvp by? What is pushing the limits and asking your guests to commit to far in advance?

Re: rsvp question

  • We did about a month and a half for our wedding because we had to tell our venue our final numbers about 3 weeks out. So we wanted time to follow up with people if neccessary and for late mailers to get in.

  • I said one month because we had to give in our final numbers 2 weeks before, so we started hounding everyone a few days after the 4week out deadline.

  • We did ours for about 4 weeks before hand I believe.  We had to give the final numbers to the caterer about 2 weeks before hand. 

    I'm in a friend's wedding this September, and she sent out her invitations back in late May I believe and wanted RSVP's back this past weekend.  I thought that was super early, but that's just my opinion.

  • I have never been invited to a wedding that had an rsvp date more then a month out. This one is a tad over 1.5 months before the wedding. It just seemed really long to me. It looks like 1.5 is ok but it still feels odd.
