I have read so many things and timelines for requirements vary often. Our wedding is in October 2016 in Mexico, just slightly less than a year away. I have already booked the resort and found a travel agent and have begun securing room blocks. I am wondering what everyone's opinions are on the timing of Save the Date, Invitations and RSVP requests should be. With our room block they need to book no later than 65 days before the wedding or I will be penalized for any unreserved room in the block. Do I take that into consideration with timeline for RSVPs? Or do I still make that 4-6 weeks before the wedding to provide my destination a final headcount? I was planning on save the dates sooner than later to allow people to save for the wedding December 2015 giving them 10 months notice...too early?? Invitation when??
The timeframes since travel is involved confuses me, thank you for your help!!
