Short answer
Create an online RSVP that asks for attendance, travel plans and accommodation needs. Include a clear deadline earlier than usual, and ask guests to confirm by a date that gives you time to coordinate with your venue and local suppliers. Keep questions simple and optional where possible.
For a destination wedding, your online RSVP needs to gather a bit more information than a home wedding. Start with the basics: will you attend? Then add a question about whether guests have booked or plan to book travel, and whether they need help with transfers or local recommendations. You can include a drop-down for arrival and departure dates, so you know who is around for pre-wedding events or a post-wedding brunch. Ask about accommodation preferences, such as staying at the wedding venue or nearby, but keep it optional. A text box for dietary needs is essential, especially if you are eating out or at a resort. If you are having a legal ceremony in the UK before or after the destination event, mention that clearly on the invitation, because a destination ceremony may not be legally binding on its own. Check the rules of the country where you are marrying, and suggest guests check GOV.UK for travel advice. Set your RSVP deadline at least eight weeks before the wedding, or earlier if you need to book group rates. Keep the wording friendly and practical. You might add a note that you understand travel can be complicated, and that guests should feel free to decline without pressure. That kindness goes a long way.
