If you've had a class party for your kid

When did most parents RSVP?

Maxwell handed out invitations to his whole class yesterday, and I just wanted to know when I can expect RSVPs to come in. Also, will most parents RSVP even if they are not coming?

It's tough to say. Usually, I would get most responses a few days before my deadline. This year was a tough year for RSVPs, but typically I get most even if they don't come.

Good to know! Thanks! I always RSVP right away, but I remember my wedding and how the RSVPs annoyed me to no end.

Nobody RSVPs anymore. Really. People suck about it, big time.

[chicagochick]

ugh. AT ALL? Do they just show up.....or not show up?

[rubyprincess]

Oy. A disaster. Last year we invited 19 or 20 and I was calling and emailing them til the night before and then we had 2 no shows who said yes. It's a lot like wedding rsvping actually. Ugh. Not looking forward to that next month.

Ugh. I knew this RSVP things was going to tick me off. How hard is it to take two seconds and email?!

We handed out Soph's invites yest, and 1 parent called yest and 2 stopped me at pick up to RSVP. I am expecting to start getting responses end of the week or beginning of next week.

Any update? :)

[ladybug777]

RSVP's are trickling in. Still waiting on 5 people to get back to me.

My experience says to expect those that are going to RSVP to do so at the last minute, but for most to not RSVP at all (but also not show)

[chicagochick]

Ugh. I'm all stressed out over this. I'm worried nobody will come.
