RSVP decor

For awhile now, I have been trying to come up with a way to display the RSVPs. I think I finally found something. I love this concrete wall in TCA -- it's the first thing you see walking up to the reception room. Also, the brunch buffet will be located on this landing, just to the right of the wall. I'm planning on draping four or five rows of RSVPs across, giving guests something to giggle at while waiting in the dreadful food line. Aren't I a nice hostess?

A dramatic reading of a real break up letter

Dear friends and family,

Please RSVP to my wedding. As of right now, only 89 people will be attending. While my parents will appreciate the budget cut, my heart may break at the sight of so many empty chairs.

People who apparently aren't coming to the gala:
-Josiah's best man and his wife
-The photographer
-The officiant
-One of my bridesmaids
-An entire half of Josiah's family

Do me a favor and fill out those precious postcards. They have polar bear stamps on them! Who could resist dropping a madlibbed polar bear postcard in the mail? Not me. I might mail myself one to make up for the unexpectedly small stack I've received.

The deadline is March 15. I can only hope you all are procrastinators.

Love always,
Celeste

P.S. - Obviously I can assume the above listed VIPs are coming (I'm only kidding about you!), but I'm using the RSVPs in the reception decor. I'd love some additional postcards to work with!


Our current count:

89 YES
36 ADDITIONAL EXPECTED
--
125 TOTAL

I think my favorite part of the wedding has been our invitations. I am obsessed with them.

I am equally infatuated with the RSVP cards. When Invited Ink created the design, I instantly fell in love with this mad lib style response postcard. Josiah is a high school English teacher (and English graduate student), and I'm a journalist ... so the grammar game fits our nerdy personalities.

The RSVPs are addressed to my parents' house, so every day I bother them with a phone call around 3:30. It's been a blast to read everyone's answers. These are some of the early RSVPers (God bless your souls) that have been anxiously awaiting their Internet debut. Enjoy!
