Question
When should I RSVP by?
Answer
We kindly ask that you RSVP no later than 30th April 2025, so that we can confirm final numbers with our venue. Should you not respond by this date, you will be marked down as a 'no' response. We will miss you at our wedding but we are unfortunately not able to accommodate late RSVPs.
