ok so we are doing Online RSVP's and not sure how to word it correctly!! i think i got it but im still not sure... any ideas
I understand that you would white it out for on here, but your actual website is on there somewhere right?
On my sister's invitation (who is also doing online RSVPs) I wrote:
"Please RSVP online at
TheirNames.com
Kindly respond by June 9th, 2011."
I think your way works fine aswell.
This should be fine as long as when you actually go to the website it's really clear how to enter your RSVP. Also, if you are really against giving the option for people to send their RSVP through the mail I would at the very least put your phone number on the card as an option. Some people - especially older people - are just not comfortable going online for these sorts of things (or at all).
@Moose1209: im also including a my phone at the very bottom
Would you consider moving the "to RSVP by phone" option to above where it says "Wedding Information"? That way all of the RSVP options are together and it might make it a little more clear for your guests. I love the design and fonts!
I would change the wording so that you present two RSVP options together as well. Somsething like, "RSVP online at URL or by phone at ###." That makes it simple and clear as to what the options are.
One thing to think about is that "Kindly RSVP" is repetitive - "RSVP" translates loosely to "please respond" so you're really saying "kindly please respond." You could just say "Kindly respond on or before..." -- and I agree about putting the phone number above "wedding information."
It looks lovely, and there's nothing wrong with the wording you've got. But it seems to me rather unnecessary. I understand the idea of having R.s.v.p. cards when you want people to send them back -- however much I dislike the practice. But if you are leaving it to your guests to respond properly using their own stationery or phone, the standard practice is to put "R.s.v.p." on the bottom right corner of the invitation itself, with the phone number under the letters. It seems quite natural in this day of the internet, to put the website and phone number both under the "R.s.v.p." on your invitation proper, and spare the cost of the extra card.
Of course, it is a beautifully designed card, and you may want to use it just for that sake; but I feel it is probably extraneous.
I plan to do online RSVP too. I will just do it much like aspasia stated above.. At the very bottom I will type. I personally dont thing the word RSVP should be repeated on one invite, and I also agree with pp who said you really dont need to say Kindly RSVP, since RSVP stands for Respondez s'il vous plais which means "please respond" in french
