Do people not open Evite on purpose?

[Anonymous]

I understand not RSVPing or forgetting to RSVP. So many people just don’t seem to ever view the Evite at all.

Is the Evite just buried in their emails?

I am the type to open, delete or file emails. I know some people have thousands of unread emails.

They get buried in my emails.

You can resend to those who have not replied. Again and again and again.

Or you could call and ask if they have seen your evite.

Yes, some don’t open it the second time.

Doesn’t evite let the person know you’ve viewed the invitation? They used to years ago and if they still do maybe that’s why people wait to open them until they’re ready or know what they’re reply will be.

Yes, you can see that they viewed it. Lots of people view it and don’t rsvp. What I don’t understand is when people don’t open the invitation at all.

I had a period of time when I got NO evites. Wasn’t in my spam, or junk or whatever other places.

They went into the evite ether.

Text follow up is good.

Buried or in a weird gmail tab.

Buried or unopened because they’re waiting to open it when they’re near a calendar and can check if they’re free on the date and then forgotten.

Has it occurred to you ... wait for this ... that they didn't SEE it?

One year evite went to spam when for the other five years it didn't. My kid missed 3 birthday parties and I missed a brunch. I'm sure people thought we were rude.

[Anonymous]

Quite possible that I've just missed it.

I have thousands (20K+) of unread emails. I get 100-150 personal emails a day, plus 50-100 for work. I manage a zero inbox for my job but it is absolutely beyond me to do so for personal email.

I would love to go to your party! My kid would love to go! We just missed the invitation.

Evites are cursed, no matter what I do it seems I can’t get them to land in my inbox.

If you use evite you have to do a sweep after a few days and send personal emails to the unopened ones. Just paste the evite link in the email. It only takes five minutes.

I know the host can see when I've opened it, so I wait until I'm able to check the family calendar, ask my kid if he wants to go, and ask my spouse if there's anything pending that hasn't made the calendar yet.
