My mother is hosting the wedding and sent out the invitations. Should she call and follow up, or should I?

It doesn't matter - whoever has the time and feels comfortable doing it. I contacted my friends who were late returning the RSVP (mostly by e-mail), my husband contacted his friends and co-workers, and my MIL sat on her butt and made excuses for her family who didn't know that it's proper etiquette to return the RSVP or send a gift.

My cousin had her maid of honor call my family when we didnt respond. First of all, we didnt respond because we didnt want to go. When her maid of honor called and was told that we wouldnt be attending, she kept going on and on about not many people on the bride's side would be coming. If you are going to give a sob story and expect people to feel sorry for you - dont have someone else call, thats just tacky and shows how self centered you are that you cant even call your own relative. If its your wedding and you want people to come, you handle it on your own!

If there was RSVP on the invite and she needs a head count for food , she will need to call them. People are so rude.

It doesn't matter, split them up and you can both do it. I am always amazed at how many rude people don't bother to reply to wedding invitations.

Have the wedding police contact and arrest them for contempt of wedding.

It depends who she put down on the invitation as the contact to RSVP their attendance back to - whoever was chosen as that person should contact them.

If you have time and really want them to be there then contact them.
If it really isn't that big of a deal then leave them in peace, they may not want to feel pressured into going especially if they have a conflict that day and they aren't that close to you.

Have a limosine park in front of your relatives's /friend's. Then hire some bid dude drag them into the car.
Close the door. BAM!
Easy!

It depends on who knows the intended guests. If it's an associate of hers, for example, she should, if it's an associate of yours, you should, if it's an associate of the groom, he should.
If it's someone all of you know, I think you should take the initiative if you have the time, after all, it's your wedding, not your mother's.

It would be nice of you to help out your mom.
