I love it and it would make things so much easier for my parent's friends that are attending. Thanks :)&nbsp;</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/wedding-invitationswebsitersvp#post-3222458 Mon, 13 Feb 2012 05:29:00 +0000 Carnival_Bride 3222458@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>We are using <a href="http://www.projectwedding.com">Project Wedding</a> and they allow you to RSVP and select meal choices. It then puts it into a handy dandy spreadsheet that I can import into Excel. I enclosed a screen shot of what the RSVP page looks like. I should note where it says Meal we inputted something different due to the needs of our wedding, but it does allow you to chose among options of your choice.</p> <p><img src="http://bios.weddingbee.com/pics/144935/RSVP_Screenshot.png" /></p> <p>Also, since you seem to be a tech savvy bride, I found this really cool idea in the New York Times where a bride placed a QR code on the RSVP so it allowed their guests to scan it with their phone and go right to the site. It also allowed them to get directions directly to their venue. I want to do this, sans the letterpress :-)</p> <p><img src="http://bios.weddingbee.com/pics/144935/QR_Code_on_RSVP.png" /></p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/wedding-invitationswebsitersvp#post-3222416 Mon, 13 Feb 2012 04:59:11 +0000 thegoogler88 3222416@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Okay bees--I'm in a little bit of a pickle. I don't know how to streamline my process or what website allows me to do so the best. I originally wanted to extend electronic invitations to guests but my parents are against that and want to go for traditional invitations, which I was fine with conceding to. I have a graphic designer friend designing them for me and will DIY assemble type of thing. Now my question is which website helped you build your wedding website where you had your RSVP and streamlined guest lists and menu choice options?&nbsp;</p> <p>I would love any input into this! Thanks :)&nbsp;</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/may-2012-when-are-you-sending-your-invites-and-asking-for-rsvps#post-3216680 Sat, 11 Feb 2012 14:35:03 +0000 ebet24 3216680@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I think I'm going to send them out mid March and have an RSVP date for April 20th.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/invitation-wording-59#post-3215573 Sat, 11 Feb 2012 08:05:03 +0000 mrs.folks.to.be 3215573@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Wedding website is what we're using!!! For the not so savvy computer users we just printed a paper with all the information about travel, local activities, etc with our invite. Good luck!</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/invitation-wording-59#post-3215520 Sat, 11 Feb 2012 07:44:46 +0000 awagy86 3215520@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>We just put a card with our wedding website with all of the information. We didn't get too many questions!</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/invitation-wording-59#post-3215500 Sat, 11 Feb 2012 07:34:58 +0000 PuntaCanaBride 3215500@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I received a destination wedding invite that just had an enclosed letter that explained a lot of the information.</p> <p>As for our DW we did passport invites so we were able to include most of our info on the invite but we also put a link to a wedding website that included all the information and allowed a section for people to ask questions that we posted responses for everyone. These suggestions might save you some stamps/work.</p> <p>Also people might want to know all the information before deciding if they are coming, so having them RSVP yes to get the information might result in a lot of phone calls and questions to you.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/invitation-wording-59#post-3215490 Sat, 11 Feb 2012 07:30:25 +0000 rosworms 3215490@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>Since we are having a destination wedding, there are a lot of details that guests will need before their arrival so they can plan accordingly. I don't want to clutter up my invites though.</p> <p>Can I put "Details to follow upon receipt of RSVP" on the invitation? Is there another way to word that or is that good?</p> <p>I figure then people will know that I'm not going to leave them to figure everything out and also, it might encourage them to send their RSVPs in a timely manner.</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/uninvited-guests-#post-3215193 Sat, 11 Feb 2012 00:16:29 +0000 omgsprinkles 3215193@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I just wrote a rant about this too...seriously, who knew that people inviting themselves was a thing???? Screw floral arrangements, I want to see that kind of information in the bridal magazines. "how to deal with your friends and family when your guest list has gone bat$hit crazy"'&nbsp;</p> http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/uninvited-guests-#post-3211345 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 07:36:14 +0000 gemini2loveme 3211345@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ <p>I woke up this morning waiting to&nbsp;log on cuz I just knew there would be others in the same predictament!&nbsp;(Thank you WeddingBee)...So last night I&nbsp;got the first RSVP, my glorified moment of utter excitment turned into a nausua filled hot flash. It was from my niece, I expected&nbsp;for her &amp; hubby w 1 baby to attend..(Cough)Not her fam plus 2 of&nbsp;her&nbsp;husbands buddies....yeah I dont get it and I hate to sound like such a snob. I&nbsp;will wait to get all RSVP's back before I say anything, as I dont want to single&nbsp;anyone else out from the "Ettiquete call"...I have to think that most people don't see&nbsp;anything wrong with it??? I mean REALLY...It's a special day that I want to share with those I love &amp; care for..not some big crazy ho-down!!&nbsp;&amp; of course it would be grand&nbsp;if I just had $$ to spare&nbsp;&amp; everyone "&amp; their&nbsp;Momma" [Literally] could attend but as it is I was hoping a few No's would come from my RSVP's ;-)</p> <p>Venting done. &nbsp;</p>
