It is proper etiquette to put stamps on the response envelopes. Yes, its one more expense, but as you said, its minor in comparison to everything else.
Yep, ya gotta do it. Plus it will help cut down on late RSVPs although there will probably still be some.
I think it's nice to put stamps on the envelopes. Honestly, I think anything that makes RSVPing easier for guests is the way to go. :)
I hear ya! I still have 8 months to go and I'm a bit overwhelmed with the numbers adding up, yikes!
But, like you said, its a small expense in comparison. And, if you don't put the stamp on there people may be too slow to RSVP. They'll keep forgetting to get a stamp or some silliness.
Yep, put the stamps on. It will help your rate of return and it's gracious.
If you had been a bride in the 1930s, you probably wouldn't have even enclosed an RSVP card because every had her own stationary and would carefully craft an acceptance note and mail it to you!
I think it's funny how times have changed and it's now considered bad form to not include postage. That being said, I will be including postage on mine. Even trying to figure out how to get postage for the out of country guests.
Sadly, I have to say that yes, it is the right thing to do. I wouldn't reply to a wedding if it didn't have a stamp on it. I'd call and say I was coming or something, but not buy a stamp. Actually, I don't ever buy stamps. Who uses snail mail anymore?! lol Plus, have you seen all the LOVELY designs out there!
Non-negotiable! While it is so standard that no one will notice if you do it, people sure will notice if you don't! And since the invitation is the first thing people will see, you want to start off on the right foot.
Yes, I think it's proper (& expected) to put postage on your reply cards. However, depending on the formality of your wedding, you have other options. If less formal, you could always do e-RSVPs (we are doing this - to save money & be green) or phone tree your RSVPs through your wedding party. There is the possiblity that you'll be doing the latter to check on late RSVPs anyway...just a thought, if your goal is to save money.

Is it etiquette-correct to put stamps on the response envelopes? I was reading something online that basically said that it would be the height of impoliteness to force our guests to spend 44 cents on a stamp to send back to us. Really?!
I suppose I don't mind the extra expense since it's minor compared to all the other ridiculous stuff we have to buy for the wedding, but still. Ugh. Since I've been planning this wedding for ten months now, the budget issues are really starting to hurt!
