Being from the south, I...let's just say...have a pretty big pet peeve about guests not responding to invitations with an response requested. Don't people understand that it is a HUGE inconvenience for planners to plan without a number? This is me getting of my soapbox:.. :)
Since all of humanity seems to have forgotten the polite rules of responding to events...maybe they need a little polite nudging with wording like this? This invitation to a corporate dinner has used the wording..."private and exclusive dinner" and "Seating is reserved and limited. Please respond by October 1."
Wonder why brides and/or the bridal industry hasn't caught on to this way of wording? I guess everything is very Emily Post. Must be proper. Must be polite. Must be Martha. So, if the bride must be these things...why won't guest be these things...and just respond? Happy RSVP collecting!
