Frequently asked questions
What should evening guest rsvp wording make clear?
Use the RSVP to collect RSVPs from evening-only guests. Make the response action and deadline obvious, and ask only for information you will genuinely use when planning the wedding.
Should evening guests receive a separate RSVP?
Often yes. A separate response makes it clear they are confirming the evening celebration rather than the ceremony or wedding breakfast, and lets you collect only the information relevant to that part of the day.
Should evening guest rsvp be handled on a printed RSVP card or online form?
Either can work for evening guest rsvp. Use rsvp card, online rsvp form, wedding website or reminder message and choose the format that makes this particular answer easy for guests to give and easy for you to manage. Conditional questions or longer free-text answers are usually cleaner online.
