Save The Dates 2 Years Out For A PPD...





From the relationship section of my new favourite app:


Re: Save The Dates 2 Years Out For A PPD...
Yes, it is too early for a STD for a party that is two years from now. You're wrong. It doesn't "make sense" to include that with your marriage announcement. It's just the opposite. That makes no sense.
So, the wording would just be a marriage announcement.
I mean, I guess it wouldn't hurt if the poster verbally mentioned they will be having a Celebration of Marriage party in two years, when people they will definitely be inviting congratulate them. And, omg, just stop with the "vow renewal" in two years. I'd hope and assume that they are not going to forget the gist of the ones they are taking this Thursday.
I'm picturing getting a marriage announcement like that, lol. And thinking (in re: to the party), "Umm...okay. Remind me again in 22-23 months." (Head tilted and confused look).
Send out formal marriage announcements as soon as you are married. If you cannot be satisfied with your courthouse marriage, then you should wait until you can have the wedding you want.
However, a STD 2 years out is too much. Who knows that is going on in 2 years?!?!? Fine for the couple to mention to their close friends and family what they are thinking of doing, but beyond that, no one needs to know right now. Maybe they'll change their mind in 2 years time when they realize the wedding they had is enough.
PPDs are usually done when the couple - for whatever reason - decides that their wedding ceremony was not good enough for them.
People really do this? Probably the less said the better.
