Could you make some things that you could freeze and not produce unless lots of people turn up. You could do some things that you could eat later say bacon and egg pies, muffins, slices etc. Then only set out what you need for the rsvp people and if more turn up can get out some of the extras. If no one extra turns up then freeze the extra stuff?

Can you ring people a few days after the rsvp date, or are there too many people?

Yea, I was thinking of ringing as well. It's so rude, though, you shouldn't have to do that (people who don't respond to invitations get to me, it's just not that hard!)

..................lol we must have been writing the same time...............yeah i get really peed with them..........its not like we put it on the invite cause it looks pretty people..........i know one of hubbies family said that they dont rsvp cause they think i want to know about pressies..........yeah cause that works........thats why i tell them not to get my boy anything cause he has too much (which he does) but if they feel the need then too put money into his account....bad move...they think i spend the money..........yip cause im like that.............ok bitch over lol...........i think i need to take up drinking cause now would be a good time

Have a few bags of potato chips and packets of biscuts in the cupboard so you can bulk up what you have. And do plenty of things like fairy bread and sausage rolls which are cheap.

yes sausage rolls can freeze and if have extra bread for fairy bread can freeze that too and what about saveloys too.
i would just go with getting more food than rsvp but make sure is food that won't get wasted, that way you won't feel stressed about non rsvpers! No point getting in a tizz about it even though is annoying!
