I understand that we will have only had a 6 month engagement, but we still sent out the invites as if it were a 1 year engagement. We pared down our guest list fairly easily, designed the invites, and mailed them out. We asked our guests to RSVP by a specific date, but I feel like we should have asked them to pipe up sooner. Or maybe I'm just worried that we won't have enough time to secure the things we need for our day that are contingent upon guest numbers (food, seating, etc). The invites have been out for 2 weeks now and I thought for sure we would have heard from more of our friends sooner.
I'm sure I can pull it all off, but I just thought.... Well. Sigh.
Anyway. I found this on Pinterest. I'd love to do it and if I use different color balloons, it would tie back into the way I proposed!
that would be the cutest!!!!
ReplyDeletePlanning stress! BLEH! I hope the RSVPs come in soon!!!!!
Gosh, RSVP's. At my wedding, I had all of the RSVP's mailed to my MOH's house (because that's what they do, gosh darn it) but she lost them. All. And didn't tell me until the night before numbers were due! So my mom and I ended up sitting down and calling every single person on my invite list to find out if they had said yes or no, and then added 5% because there were people we couldn't contact. Luckily, there was one seat leftover and everyone was fed, but still. Stress.
