    It is typical to do it between 6-9 mo, but many people do it a year out if there will be many OOT guests or it is on a holiday weekend. We sent ours abotu 10 or 11 months out since most of our guests were OOT and it was on a nontraditional day.

    We did 8 months out. We had a guest list that was mostly OOT.

    Ditto Gray. We sent ours out 1 year and a week in advance since H is Military, it was a holiday weekend, and most of our guests were OOT : )
    I wanted to make sure people got them a year in advance since most plan what they are going to do for the holiday next year.

    I sent mine out between 9-10 months out. FI's side of the guest list is from Iowa so about 3 hours away from where the wedding will be.

    We will be sending ours out about 7 months before. I didn't want to send ours out right around Christmas time, so we will be waiting until a little after. Thankfully we don't have many OOT guests. Most of our OOT guests will be college friends. :)
