To RSVP.  This means you.  And you.  But not you, you gracious wonderful person who already sent that cute postcard back.

Haven't RSVP'd because you aren't coming?  Please RSVP now.  RSVPs are not just for those who are coming.  While we'll be sad you won't be joining us, it's as important that we know who isn't coming as to know who is.

Haven't RSVP'd because we know whether you're coming or not?  Please RSVP now.  Because there's a system.  Because we might not remember the conversation.  Because we might not have correctly interpreted "Your invitation was so cool" or "I have to check my calendar".

Haven't RSVP'd because you don't know your answer yet?  That's okay.  But please RSVP by September 1st.

Haven't RSVP'd because you lost the postcard?  Please RSVP by snail mail, email, or phone.  All we need to know is whether you are coming and how many of you there are.

Thanks!  We'll have to follow up individually on all the missing RSVPs so please help make that a short list.  (If you have RSVP'd please lean on anyone who hasn't.)

Bex! & Dave
