When it comes to wedding invitations, there's a lot to be said, but I'm just going to touch upon two areas.
Wording
There are many ways to word your invitations; you'd be surprised. So do your research. You want to be sure that your invitation matches the feel of your wedding, whether it's formal, casual, playful, etc. You even have to think of the nitty gritty details; like if you're going to spell out numbers or use the numeric symbol. There are quite a few things to consider with wording, but don't worry, it's fairly quick and painless.
RSVP's
Getting people to RSVP can be a difficult thing. In general, people just aren't good at it. One reason I think people don't RSVP is because they don't like to call someone and tell them their attendance decision. Well, I have one suggestion that may help you to get more responses.
Set up an email account solely for receiving RSVP's. This way you don't have a bunch of other mail getting mixed in; you'll only receive emails that are RSVP's. If you go the email route, make sure you put the email address on the invitation.
This won't get everyone to RSVP, but it may increase the number you do get. You'll still probably have to contact people to get their response, that's just the way it goes.
So with those two pointers in mind, have fun and enjoy picking out your wedding invitations!
