Re: If you could make your choice without offending anyone…
Right, but if you actually want the people you invite to attend your wedding, and you know that they won’t all follow the RSVP system, you need to be prepared to make the extra effort to make calls starting 1-2 weeks after you have sent the invitations. We did the same thing. It’s either that or deal with all sorts of misunderstandings and mess-ups on the day of. I think it’s smarter to prevent all of that.
