A simple RSVP line
“Please RSVP to [name] by [date] at [phone number or email]. We would love to celebrate with you.”
For an intimate gathering
“We are keeping the afternoon small and would be so glad to have you there. Please let [name] know by [date] if you can join us.”
For a shower with a meal
“Please RSVP by [date], including any dietary needs, so we can make a place for you at the table.”
A gentle reminder
“A quick reminder that we would love to celebrate with you on [date]. If you have not already replied, please let us know by [new deadline].”
Choose one easy reply path
A text, email, phone number or private RSVP page all work. What matters is that guests do not need to guess whom to contact or search through an old group message for the deadline.
One invitation, one answer
Given Dearly puts the invitation, RSVP, registry and day-of details on one private page for the people you invite.

When should an RSVP deadline be?
Two to three weeks before the shower is a useful target, giving you enough time to finalize food, seating and supplies.
Should guests RSVP to the host or parents?
Either is fine. Choose the person most able to track replies and make that contact information unmistakable.
