In party cards RSVP stand for?

The acronym RSVP, or R.S.V.P., stands for "répondez, s'il vous plaît", a French phrase that means "respond, if you please". It is more commonly translated as "please respond". It is used with event invitations to indicate that the sender wishes for the recipient to respond in some manner. Usually, wedding parties will request that attendees respond to confirm that they are coming and, if applicable, how many guests they will bring, their food preference for catering purposes, and so on. It is polite to send your regrets (respond by declining the invitation) if you are unable to attend, but failure to respond is usually considered an indication that you won't be there. There is usually a deadline by which attendees are expected to reply so that appropriate arrangements can be made.


How do you fill out an RSVP?

An invitation should be answered in the same form as it was issued and with the same degree of formality. An invitation issued via the telephone or email can be responded to in the same way. A written invitation should be responded to in writing unless the invitation lists a telephone number or email address. Formal invitations issued in the third person, such as wedding invitations should be replied to in the third person. Example: Mr. John Jones accepts with pleasure the kind invitation of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Dennis Calhoun for Saturday the nineteenth of August two thousand ten at seven o'clock in the evening A regret is worded: Mr. John Jones regrets that he is unable to accept the very kind invitation of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Dennis Calhoun It is permissible but not required to cite a reason for declining the invitation such as Mr. John Jones regrets that due to his absence from New York he is unable to accept the very kind invitation of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Dennis Calhoun or Mr. John Jones regrets that he is unable to accept the very kind invitation of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Calvin Calhoun due to a previous engagement Replies should be done on blank ecru or white paper and written in black or blue-black ink. If an invitation includes a response card, which almost all do, then you should use the card and accompanying envelope to reply. If no response envelope is provided you should reply to the return address on the invitation envelope
