Tacky or not...birthday reminder

Do you think its tacky to send out a reminder email for those who RSVP'ed yes?  The invintations were sent out a month ago and I don't want people to forget since we're having it at a restuarant.

    I wouldn't. If I got a birthday reminder after I already RSVPed yes, I'd give you a side eye.

    I personally wouldn't. If I had responded yes and then someone sent me a reminder I would be annoyed that they thought I would have forgotten. Of course if you have a family that forgets a lot I might change my answer!

    If you have a particular friend who always says yes but then doesn't show up you could just mention it like 'oh hey you're coming to jrs bday part next week right? I need to put the final count in and couldn't remember'....I wouldn't send a reminder though.  In conversation it could be just mentioned lightly.

    I wouldn't say it's tacky, I would say it's overkill and a tad insulting.  I would be a little put off if I received a reminder after I'd already RSVPd.  If there are a handful of people that you are worried might forget, send them a quick text or email or whatever and say something like "Hey, really looking forward to seeing you next Saturday!"  something casual and unassuming.

    If you'r worried they will forget, send them something like "I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone on Saturday.  I just wanted to make sure everyone has directions"

    I think it's not needed. If they said yes it's pretty unlikely that they would forget.

    Ditto PP. I know a lot of people who keep the invitation on their refrigerator as a reminder so unless you know someone that notoriously RSVPs and then doesn't show, most people will remember one way or another.
