Personally, I wouldn't send them a new one. Do you have a website? If so, you can direct them there for all the info that they need and they can RSVP via phone with you. I'm sorry, but it's just IMO, a pain to send them more.
IMO, I would NOT send them a new one. It is not your responsibility if they lose their invite. They can give you their response via email or phone and as Miss Saphire said if you have a website, you can post all the information that they need on there.
Save your time, effort and money!
I agree. I wouldn't send them a new one, either. As Miss Sapphire suggested, I would send them to a website, i.e. theknot where they can RSVP online. They can get all the same information that was on the invitation and you can handle their RSVP electronically.
That's a very strange request...and I'd be a little miffed if it were me. I wouldn't send them new ones personally, I wouldn't have the patience or the inclination even if I did have extras. I would just send them an email with the info or direct them to your weddign website and ask that they RSVP by whatever date via email then. If you feel that the best solution for you is to send new ones then by all means go ahead!
I sent every blessed invitation out. I don't even have one as a memento! If you have a web site with info, refer them to that or send the info via e-mail.
No I would not resend. You can tell them you're out and direct them to a wedding website. That's so rude of them!
I wouldn't send additional invites. Direct them to a website or offer to email them the information. They can RSVP via email, phone call, or mail if they choose to take the initiative. Making/delivering new invites sounds like more stress for you, and I've never heard of anyone even asking! Try not to worry too much about it; do what works for you. If you want to make them, then do. It seems to be the consensus here that you don't have to if you don't want to! It's all about what works best for you!
Nope, I agree -- don't resend. Do you have a PDF of your invite file you could print and share with them? Otherwise, just pass along a helpful website or the essential information!
In the back of my mind it makes me think that they gave it to someone! The horrors!
Yikes.
What. Omg. I cannot believe that if someone lost their invite, they'd ask for you to give them a new one. Some invitations are very expensive, not to mention all the time it takes to make them.
I would create a website like some have said and have them RSVP on there.
Ok, so in your busy life you are supposed to find time to make out a new invite for someone who lost theirs? Sorry, no. I think they are barking up the wrong tree. It would be different to call someone and say "Hey I lost your invitation but we were planning on coming can you give me the details quick?" I can't believe they even asked for another invite. Wow. Just wow.
i would not send them new ones either! invitations are super expensive. it's their faut for misplacing it! i would direct them to my wedding website and ask if they had any questions...
website or PDF file of invitaion is all you have to do.....
sad sad guests are so irresponsible and with the economy and the costs of wedding as a Mom, I'm just disappointed in so much lack of what I would call GOOD SOCIAL MANNERS..... seems like we have a post an hour at least with issues.
Thats pretty presumptious of them! I mean say if you had ordered them rather than done fabulous DIY work...you would have a limited number and most places wont reprint a small number without huge set up fees. It is pretty rude to assume you would pay extra money just because THEY lost the one you were gracious enough to have sent them.
Yeah, no way! I only have a couple left-overs, so there's no way I'm giving out more of those babies. Like others have said, point them towards your wedding website.
i would seriously just let them know that you don't currently have any available and that you would be willing to email them any details they need and they can just reply with their RSVP that way. don't they realize these invites should be treated like gold?! lol
I wouldnt send one. If you have a wedding website - send them in that direction.
I wouldn't take it personally-some people just don't think about how much a wedding costs and how much goes into planning-even things like invitations which may seem like a small detail to someone who has never planned a wedding. I'm sure they don't want one of your invitations per e..but just maybe something with all the of info, and I'm sure your website will be fine.
Yeah, I'm with everyone else. Don't send them... or simply write out the details on a nice notecard.
Just let them know that you don't have any extras to spare but will get them all the details they need.
I'm so confused -- how does one lose an invitation?!?! ha. sorry, I'm trying to find the humor in it ... I would not send them another, just give them a call or email and say "Please call me at xxxx in order to RSVP"
Thanks Bees. Yeah I'm annoyed at the requests. I couldn't believe it when I came into work today and another person asked for me to give them another invitation. I do understand that most people don't get how long it took me to make them and send them out so it might seem to them like it's not asking a lot to just give them an extra but man, I worked hard on those things and I never want to make another wedding invitation for as long as I live! @Soon2BeeMrsLewis: So true, they SHOULD be treated like gold! LOL
I have a website so I'll just direct them there and tell them to email me their attendance response.
Hmmm....this is so unusual of a request, and the fact that TWO people who know each other are asking makes me suspicious. Maybe they are planning to make you some sort of gift that incorporates your invitations? I have seen some lacquered trays that have the invitations inside. Maybe they are trying to get enough to make something out of them. If you have enough extras, maybe I would give them one just on the off chance that rather than being rude, they are trying to be crafty?
no way!!! do not send themn a new one they lost it its their fault, just tell them the info over the phone
its not your problem they lost it
just my take
why are you givign yourself a hard time when they lost it?
NO! I would kick my guest in the a** if they asked for another invitation because, a) they are admitting to me that they lost the beloved invite of theirs that I SENT THEM with all the loving care that I gave to it! - THE HORROR! I spent about 150 hours total on 97 invites which is 90 minutes per INVITE! And yes, now that I have some extras it would probably take me 10-15 minutes... but STILL!
What nerve? Why do they need another one? Can't they just TELL you they are coming and what meal they are having? Boy.
This happened to me to, and I actually did send another one. I had extras though... she called me and apologized and asked if she could have another RSVP card to go with her invite because she sent hers back (on time!) but wanted to put both in her scrapbook.
Yes I would point them in the direction of your website. You have so many other details to be concerned with. It is their responsibilty to place the invitation in a safe place. Congrats on your wonderful day!!
I wouldn't send another invite unless I have extras. They don't really NEED an invite anyway. You know they were invited, they know they were invited. They just need to find out the wedding info, i.e. location, date, time, dress code, etc. and tell you whether they are coming or not, menu selection if applicable, and all that can be accomplished via other means, such as what everyone else suggested, a website or even just give them the information via email, etc. I definitely wouldn't make another invite just for someone who lost the invite.
I agree with snmcdowell that they might being making you something and need a couple more invites. For example, they could be making a scrapbook for a wedding gift and trying to be descreet about it. Maybe they accidentally destroyed theirs while trying to make it. I would be annoyed at such a request, but keep positive!! Only a little over a month to go!!
You are way more accommodating then I would be! They're adults! They lost them! I would NEVER ask someone for another invitation! If I were you, I would just tell them that I only made enough invitations for the number of people I was inviting....I think that's totally reasonable! Snmcdowell makes a good point, but couldn't they just use the invite you already sent them? I would definitely not be happy about that request. Good luck!
I also say do NOT resend! You have enough to worry about w/ your wedding tell if/when they contact you said sorry I don't have anymore please just let me (or my mom) know if you will be able to attend and your meal choice (if that was on option). If they need the info on the location etc direct them to the website.

Sorry, there are no users yet.
I have a few guests that have lost my invitations and want new ones. I'm running really low on invitation supplies and postage, not to mention that it was pretty time consuming to make them all (and I was so relieved to finally be done with them just a week and a half ago!). I guess it would be best to just make them all new invitations so they can properly respond and send back their RSVP cards, but has anyone else encountered this problem too? Should I mail them to these guests again or should I just hand them a new one?
