How to RSVP

Today, a wedding invitation is one of the few formal invites we receive so here are some tips on replying...

RSVP as soon as possible, ideally within a few days of receiving the invitation. Don’t wait until the deadline.

Follow the instructions on the invitation exactly — whether it asks for an online reply, a returned card, or a phone call. If there is no intructions a hand written letter (in Ink) might be expected.

Only respond for those explicitly invited. Do not assume you can bring a guest or children unless they are named.

If you’re unable to attend, still send your regrets promptly, along with a polite message of congratulations.
