I have found that people often just turn up without RSVPing.

Oh 🙁 – I hope everything turned out well and you sweet boy had a wonderful day. x

I hope it all worked out o.k. on the day. I would definitely have gone ahead with the party, regardless of how many people rsvp’d. I’ve done it before, and there’s always a few that show up that didn’t rsvp, but I always made sure that there were plenty of family members there, just in case. As long as whoever’s there makes a fuss of the birthday child, that’s what they’ll remember.

did many end up bringing there kids? I’m hoping so

awww hun, I do hope that people attended,

we are going through this now but as long as family show up we’ll have a great time

this is so heart breaking for a Mum but I do hope friends came to his party

that is sad, i hope it turned out a fun happy day for him!!

I am rotten at RSVPing – I add the event on my calendar but always forget to send the RSVP. There is no harm in follow up messages just to confirm numbers.

I imagine by now you are feeling better like I was when I had the same thing happen. I catered at the bowling alley to only a certain amount of guests but then quite a few arrived that hadn’t RSVP.

doesnt matter if only one kid comes your boy will still have fun

maybe try another place to meet kids.

no matter how many parties i have thrown for my kids i am amazed at how many people do not RSVP. i say go ahead and enjoy the day no matter what! Your little boy will just have fun and he won’t be counting how many people are there.

Well at least you made an effort! Don’t worry and think positive!

Awww… why cancel?! All he needs is his parents there to have fun with him! 2 is plenty! 😛

I wouldn’t cancel. It doesn’t matter how many friends turn up! 2 is plenty enough! My daughter only had two friends invited to her 5th and they all had a great time. My daughter also did not get invited to parties too….very active too! Most likely that the other parents just don’t know how to take an obviously bright child! Have a great time at your son’s 2nd birthday! I know he will too!

Could you perhaps text/call/email the parents and say that you are just working on the catering/doing the goody bags and was wondering if they could make it? We’ve just had a party and most people didn’t bother to RSVP. Some showed up and some didn’t. I don’t understand that mentality. I hope your son enjoys his day – it doesn’t really matter how many people there are because the ones that are there are the ones that matter.
