RSVP

Hosts and guests may be confused about what RSVP means on an invitation. The letters RSVP come from the French expression "répondez s'il vous plaît"  and it means  "please respond."

 RSVP means that the guest must tell the host if they are going to the party or not.

RSVP does not mean to respond only if you're coming, and it does not mean respond only if you're not coming (the expression "regrets only" is reserved for that instance).

It means the host needs to know how many people are going to the party and needs to know it by the date specified on the invitation. .

How to respond. RSVP Types

 Formal invitation, especially a wedding invitation, will have a response card that you can return in its envelope.

Informal invitations may have a telephone number, email address, texting address, or social media method to reply.
