Post shower vent but small
How many people actually never Rsvp'd? I just find it quite rude that you can't just pick up the phone. In my case we have a nice relationship with our neighbors so we invited them. My dh talks to them mostly but then had to text their dh's to remind the wives to rsvp. One said we will call shortly but were holding out to see if they had to go away, & the other is a dr & was on call that weekend.
OIk, I get it but my point is why couldn't they rsvp properly?
Neither one of the wives acknowledged the invitation but one of them does ask my dh where we are registered? It's on the invite!!! Grrrr
how would you feel? Vent over.

I was embarassed because some of my friends didn't rsvp and my MIL was throwing the shower. She was very laid back about it, but somehow I felt like it reflected on me.

Re: Post shower vent but small
RSVPing is a HUGE pet-peeve of mine!!!! I hate that ppl just don't do it and you have to chase after them! Not exclusively about showers, but relates to every event I've ever hosted! Common ppl, you don't live in a social bubble, you know how things are done! I hate hate hate having to chase after ppl, and prompt them to RSVPing...

Exactly. All you have to do is pick up the phone.

Re: Post shower vent but small
i hear you.
as soon as i get an invite i always respond because i know how hard it is to get a response when throwing a party.
cant say the same for the people who had to respond to my little sprinkle this past weekend.

It's not like I am dwelling on who wasn't there. I am grateful & happy for the people who were there. Its just that I notice these things.

did they ever acknowledge it even if it was after the fact?

Well two of them rspv'ed to me, a day or two before, so I had to call my MIL and tell her. And then my coworker never rsvped, she just showed up.
And a few of my DH's friends' wives never rsvped, and didn't come.
