throw on a stamp. they should get it.

i am having tear-off rsvp cards and am prestamping them too.

ooh, i did RSVP postcards, too, and so far so good… i’ve got ~55% of them returned in two weeks, so i’m proof positive that korean people can figure it out.

def, the stamps make it a no-brainer - i stuffed my pocket-fold envelope w/ the stamp facing upward, so they knew it was a postcard.

side note: i designed my postcards myself and left a little blank area, in the hopes that some of my friends would write us little messages and cute notes… and it worked! some of the notes are so hilarious, they make me LOL.

definitely presstamp. plus, it makes it easier to send back since i’m forever looking for a stamp and putting things off because i haven’t found one.

We did the RSVP postcards too. Some are getting a little messed up due to all the machines they go through at the post office; however, as long as they make it back to me safely, I am happy.

The first thing my aunt said was, “You forgot envelopes for the RSVPs!”

@Random…: @Random…: wow…u need to take life a little less seriously. give the girl a break…she’s stressed about her wedding and I’m sure you teaching her etiquette online isn’t going to change her!

@Random…: @Random…: @Random…: @Random…: Hey Ignorant Random person. Nobody is interested in what you consider PC. This is a wedding blog, talking about rsvp postcards. I’m sure “Ms. Butterfly” wasn’t writing to offend you, but I’d love to meet you in person so that I could really offend you. Nobody is interested in your thin skin or your feelings. Get over it. Words are words, regardless of their intentions. You’re part of the problem with this country. Everyone’s afraid to say anything because someone may get offended. Not me. I’m thinking you must be retarded. Go do something productive.

Don’t worry about all the negative comments on here. I use that phrase sometimes and you are writing from your heart. I love the idea of RSVP Postcards! I am doing that as well with our wedding invitations. I have been told that there doesn’t need to be postage on the postcard, however, I think I’ll throw it on just in case. Best wishes!

For those of you who had postcards printed . . . do you know if anyone custom shapes them . . . for example a heart-shaped postcard? I planned to take a sample to the post office to see if they will even mail it but figured maybe one of you wise and crafty people might know the answer and/or a printer who will make them . . . Thanks in advance for any helpful responses. =)

Oh yeah, and my fiance and I are going to attempt to have an adults only wedding, but we don’t have too many people with kids attending so we have spoken with our closest friends who are parents. We are also playing with the idea of putting, either as a footnote type thing or on our wedding website or info card something to the extent of . . . “Please be apprised of the adult friendly environment. As such we encourage arranging for childcare for the evening and joining us for a night out” . . . or “Arranging for babysitter on [DATE] is strongly encouraged” . . . *Shrug*

We are also planning to make our RSVP person specific, such as :
“Mr. John S. Doe __will, __will not be attending.”

Just thoughts. . .
