[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am hopelessly middle class because I don't think it is very polite or well mannered to shrug off the possibility of confusing your guests when sending out invitations. These are people who you *want* to come. If most people expect reply cards, then I think you should send them, regardless of what the tradition might have been fifty years ago.[/quote]

I am middle class and I don't think it's polite or well-mannered not to respond to an invitation. If there's no card, figure something out. [/quote]

Why not just make it easy for them to reply though (reply card + stamped envelope)?  I just think it is dumb and pointless to insist on people replying on their own stationary.[/quote]

I guess there's the unintentional status part of it. I assume people have their own stationery and stamps and using them isn't a hardship. Phones work too. [/quote]

I'm one of the PP's who is accustomed to the no RSP card included however, in today's society including an RSVP with an addressed stamped envelope is not that bad really.  Many guests would be left wondering where to even mail the RSVP with many couples no longer living with their parents or paying for the wedding themselves.  Traditionally, the brides parents were the hosts and therefore RSVP's would be mailed to this address.  This just isn't the case anymore and I don't think it matters.  The food option however is a bit off the mark but I don't really care. Its just nice to receive an invitation, to RSVP and include a note on the back of the card. [/quote]
