How early do you send out your invites for birthday parties?
How early from the date of the party to you put on the invite for people to RSVP by?
How many people typically show up vs. how many people you invite?

How early do you send out your invites for birthday parties? A week to a week and a half early.
How early from the date of the party to you put on the invite for people to RSVP by? I've never put an RSVP 'by' date. I just put RSVP with my phone number. No one ever RSVP's, it drives me crazy!!
How many people typically show up vs. how many people you invite? Everyone we invited to Ella's 1st birthday showed up, and all but two kids showed up to Caleb's party this week.

I gave out Tayden's invites about a month ago and just called everyone this week to see if they could make it. Mostly everyone is coming except one family.

People in my circle of friends/family are NOTORIOUS for either not RSVPing or just not coming.. or RSVPing and not coming. I hate it!

I sent out the invites 2 weeks early.. I really want it to be special for the boys but I just don't know how it's gonna be

We usually send them out a couple weeks early - but we really only invite our families and my best friend her husband and their 3 kids. Everyone knows about the party and the time before they get the invite as I usually run it past everyone to make sure the date works for them.
