    I just found out that I missed the deadline to RSVP for two friends of mine's wedding. They know I'm planning on coming as I talked to one of them as recently as last night about the wedding but as the RSVP's are going to the bride's family who lives in Green Bay and who I have never met is this going to be a problem that I am sending the RSVP back more than a week late?

    I would send it in right away with your apologies. People usually give some extra room on the RSVP date, because they expect latecomers. Just do it NOW.

    Send it back ASAP. Maybe call your friends to explain/apologize. I'm sure you're not the only one to send one late. Better than not sending it at all.

    Hell, I remember we even got a few back the week after the wedding...

    No problem - just phone them if you can find the number.

    My wedding RSVP date was 3 weeks ago and we're still letting some people in...

    so you finally married the girl from the bus stop....good man



    yeah RSVP asap and apologize and get them one of the nicer gifts on their registry.



    I was one of the groomsmen for a friends wedding last year I got the invitation but didnt RSVP since I figured it was assumed I was coming and I told my friend and his wife several times about me coming and was involved in some of their planning even.

    I get a call 2 weeks before the wedding from my friends wife (also my friend) saying hey you never RSVP'ed! and I was like are you F'in kidding me? like you needed me to send in a letter letting you know I am coming when I already told you all several times, you helped me arrange where I am going to spend the night and all. yet she still wanted the damn rsvp letter so i had to send it in.

    What's a nice gift going to do? He's inconveniencing the bride's parents, not the couple. Send [them a gift. Or, failing that, send one to me.

    it's no biggy but def send it as soon as you can. most places need a final headcount 3-4 days before the event so you can even drop before then.

    Sent the RSVP today, called the groom and told him the situation, and left a message on the guest book of their wedding website apologizing. I already bought their present back in February.

    Thanks for the advice and I think it will all work out. Just to be on the safe side though I'm going to wear a Packers' jersey to the wedding. Considering this is Green Bay and the reception is at the Brett Favre steakhouse I'm guessing all will be forgiven.
