RSVP meaning in Indian weddings

RSVP means “please respond.” For Indian multi-day weddings, digital per-function RSVP replaces endless “confirm once” messages.

Common questions

Do Indian guests understand RSVP?

Many do; still explain “kindly reply by…” in plain language on the invite.

Is phone confirmation obsolete?

Keep phone for elders; use digital for everyone else.
