This sounds really lazy, but..

If it was me I would pop and see them ... its only three doors away! ?

True. I spoke to my Mum about it but she's said not to chase up non-RSVPs because there are other things to do.

But surely it would only take approx 3 mins. You really can't spare that for wedding guests?

In the time you took to speak with your Mum about it, it could have been job done.

Tell you what...if you feel the need to add more posts to ths thread, don't. Spend that time popping to your neighbours.

I'd chase them up - as others have said it won't take very long and then you won't spend time worrying about it anymore - otherwise how are you going to confirm numbers or sort out table plan etc if they're not coming? Could cause more hassle and if it only takes a second to sort it, it seems easy. If you only got one non RSVP a day before your cut off date that seems pretty good to me! And you never know, they might respond by the cut off date tomorrow.

If they have been talking like they're attending, surely it's better to chase up to make sure?

Imagine the mutual embarrassment if they have genuinely forgotten to send an RSVP but turn up on the day and have nowhere to sit.

If they're your neigbours then surely you would just see them about, maybe when you put your bins out, or when you go out to the car, or pop up the road to the shop. I dont think its out of your way to just ask them

I don't really see the issue I'm afraid. Ask them. And your nan. Why on earth would you invite people who you don't actually want to bother to speak to? Do it now!

You know them well enough to invite them to your wedding, so go knock on the door and ask. Takes 2 mins. No more issue.

Do it. You don't want them turning up on the day and not having a place for them to sit/no meal for them as you didn't chase their RSVP.

Yes its very lazy to just leave it. Go and ask. If you are embarrassed blame it on 'wedding brain'.

WFTLOMBsaid, precisely. I can't believe you could be bothered to type out this post but not pop 3 doors down!

Thanks for all your replies all and having re-read what my exhausted brain managed to piece together last night I'm frankly dumbfounded. It's not at all how I meant it to come across and for that I apologise.

Anyway, as it were I managed to catch my neighbour earlier. I was walking home with my friend and she was walking up form the shops, we got chatting and got discussing my delightful (sarcasm) new neighbours. One thing led to another and I casually asked her whether she was joining us or not, stating that I "couldn't remember" what she'd said. She was really nice about it and said she thought she'd actually told me she was coming. She went on to explain that our invitation was pinned to her notice board and they were thoroughly looking forward to being there. So that's that one done and dusted!
