RSVP Etiquette Tips (from PhotoAffections.com)

1. ALWAYS RSVP to any event; and as promptly as possible.

2. Respond by deadline: the deadline is very important, not only for food and drink counts, but also for the hostess to prepare for the event.

3. If you have RSVPed for an event and, at the last minute, need to cancel—make a quick courtesy phone call to the host.

4. An invitation that is addressed specifically to your name and does not specify “and guest” means you cannot bring a guest.

5. If your children’s names are not on the envelope, you should always ask if you’d like to bring your children along. If their names are not included, it might mean children are not invited; or it might be an oversight, so you should always ask.
