RSVP

is actually a French term (Respondez-s'il vout plait). Which literally means 'Respond if you please'. Sobrang uso yan sa US, Canada at syempre sa France at sa buong Europe. Di ko sure kung sumusunod ang mga Pilipino dyan.

1) Ewan nga ba bakit ayaw mag-RSVP ng mga Pinoy. Ayaw mag-commit? Feeling importante? Feeling busy? Mahirap i-explain. Pero hula ko, < 40% ang mag-R-RSVP lalo na sa mga weddings.

2) Sa mga weddings, 30% ng mga may invitation ang HINDI pumupunta. At 20% naman ng nagsabing pupunta ang hindi pupunta, kapag sa hotel ang wedding reception. Kapag sa bahay/barangay e kabaligtaran +20% ang pumupunta.

3) Wala pa kong na-host na wedding na puno ang mga tables o walang maupuan ang mga guests. Laging may sobrang 1 table at 2 tables. Kasi nga ayaw mag -RSVP.

Pero, maski naman mag-RSVP ang mga Pinoy o hindi, e hindi mo pa rin sure kung pupunta sila o hindi. Marami talaga sa mga guests, ang nag-de-desisyon kung pupunta o hindi the day of the wedding.

Ang aking theory. Baka hindi dapat RSVP ang hingin. Baka dapat tanungin mo kung:
1) "Nakabili ka na ba ng damit?" Kasi kung gumastos ka na, e malamang pupunta ka. Kasi, kung hindi ka pupunta, e di mo naman puwedeng pang-araw-araw ang damit ano. so sayang, pupunta ka na lang.

2) Dapat may emotional investment or emotional attachment ang bisita. Kung asa entourage, malamang pupunta siya syempre. Kung nag-practice na ang flower girl or ring bearer for 6 months, e malamang pupunta yon. Sayang naman ang investment sa time at pasensya ng magulang.

Yun Lang, wala na namang kuwentang post. hehe

Hahahaa...kakatawa...

Minsan, inaaalam pa ng iba kung sino ang pupunta...magtetext pa muna ng mga tao (at saka pa lang magdedesisyon)...

I believe in the simple rule pag may okasyon o imbitasyon:

"Pag ayaw, may dahilan; pag gusto, may paraan" :-)

Tama ka jan! Monthly yata may wedding invitation ako. at hindi basta invited lang, kundi NINANG! Hirap, di ba? Una na yun time, instead of sa bahay ka lang at rest ng weekend, ayun at mag attend ng wedding, ubos 1 day mo.
2nd,gown. di naman pwede isa lang kasi parang uniform na yun sa dalas ng pagni ninang ko, at same guests pa. 3rd, ang cash gift. hehehe.

edith said...

kaya minsan, kailangan mag dahilan ka para lang di maka attend. but the gift, give ko pa rin cyempre. sa sept 23 nga may kasalan ulit ako, ninang cyempre. Pero last Sept. 5, nag dahilan ako.Sa Oct 24, di ko pa alam kung mag dadahilan din ako. What do you think, Tito Ido?

ido said...

naku tita edith, magaling ako dyan sa pagdadahilan. hayaan mo i-po-post ko ang mga posibleng listahan ng mga dahilan hehe. may tinext ako sa yo ate edith, confidential hehe.

Charisse said...

Tito Ido ganun ba talaga pag executive na expert na mag-alibi. Hehe..Tita Edith malulungkot naman po si Evot pag hindi complete ang PB. Sabi ko nga sa kanya parang walang ngpapa-rsvp sa PB kaya ngwo-worried na sya...

Che said...

Haha Ate edith natawa ako dun sa gown na uniform! Ganun ka dami ang nini-ninang mo?

edith said...

Ay naku Che! Halos monthly ay nagni-ninang ako. Most of the time sa church lang ako attend, reception hindi na. Kasi nga, gabi na. At dag-dag gastos pa dahil may sabitan pa kung minsan. hehehe. pero ok din lang. Di naman sapilitan eh.

ido said...

ate edith. ilan na ang inaanak mo sa kasal? parang ang dami ata

jorge said...
