Casual RSVP wording for a printed reply card

A casual reply card talks like you do: contractions, a plain ask, the link, the date. Still print the URL cleanly — casual is a tone, not an excuse for a typo.

Free, no account. Made by Vowlist — the guest list, budget and checklist are free; the RSVP link is $79 once, no subscription.

Three ways to say it

  1. Can you make it? Let us know by [Deadline] at [Link] — your names are already on there.
  2. Reply by [Deadline] at [Link]. Tap who's coming, pick your food, done.
  3. We'd love a yes (a no is fine too). [Link] by [Deadline], please — or just text us.

Placeholders in brackets — [Names], [Date], [Link], [Deadline], [Household] — are yours to fill; the generator below does it for you.

Questions about a printed reply card

Do I still include a return envelope?

Only if you want two reply routes. Most couples using a link drop the envelope and print the URL plus "or text Maya on …" for the few who will not use a phone. One route means one list to reconcile.

Should the URL be short?

Yes — print it exactly as it will be typed, on its own line, and test it on a phone. If your RSVP tool gives you long links, put the short wedding-wide link on the card and let guests find their name on the page.

Where does the reply-by date go?

On the card, in the same sentence as the link: "Kindly reply by June 1 at …". A date without a link, or a link without a date, both produce chasing.
