RSVP Card Wording Templates

Since you are having a wedding and/or reception, you will likely need to know 1. if your guests are coming and 2. how many guests are coming. To gather this information, we recommend an RSVP card. If you’d like to receive your RSVP electronically, then we recommend a details card where you can list your wedding website or an email address for them to RSVP to. You will want to mail your wedding invitations out 2-3 months ahead of your wedding. The RSVP date on your RSVP card can be anywhere from 4-6 weeks out from your wedding. Here are some ways you can word your RSVP card! You can mix and match any of these recommendations below!
