I would much much MUCH prefer to RSVP on a website. It's quick, it's easy, the RSVP isn't going to be missed (unless people can't be bothered doing it ) and it is one less unnecessary expense for the couple getting married. LOVE it.

I love the efficiency (and less likely to lose the RSVP card) of responding on a website as well. That being said, my DH's niece got married this past January 7th. She started calling folks in July (prior year) to RSVP. Invites went out in May. I think it was a bit too early and she got frustrated with the younger crowd (her and her fiance's friends) not wanting to commit that far out.

Received a wedding invite on 2/15/23 for a 6/3/23 wedding. We are supposed to RSVP online before 4/1/23. Heck I don't plan that far ahead! DH says go ahead and respond that we will attend. Well what if something changes before then and we can't go.? I guess then we send a text and decline? and hope I don't lose the invite in the next 5 months.

You are supposed to respond by the 1st of April for a June 3rd wedding. 8 weeks lead time for the couple. Sounds reasonable. How important is this wedding (the couple) to you? Important enough to use pen to mark on your calendar or pencil? The couple is not unreasonable with this time frame. Your attitude is unreasonable. Obviously this wedding or these people are not important to you. Send your regrets and forget about the occasion.

I was just talking about this earlier last week - we got an invitation like this for a wedding this summer. I thought it was great. As someone who paid for our wedding, the invitations were expensive!
My only thought was we were with the couple a few weeks before the invite came and they said save the dates were coming soon. I didn’t realize this Was the actual invite until dh asked me to scan the QR code to find the hotel and make reservations. I

'Um the whole point of knowing and committing is so you plan to attend their wedding and not something else. If this wedding is important you will write down the date and save the invite where you keep other important things.
