August 2012 Weddings

When are you sending invites??

We got our final sketch of our invites!! I'm so excited!! We have an RSVP date of July 11th so we can tell our venue, and our block of hotel rooms must be booked by then as well. I'm not sure if I should send the invites out around June 11th or give more time/less time! When is everyone else sending their invites? TIA!!!

Re: When are you sending invites??

  • We have the same RSVP date and will send late May.
  • Our wedding is August 3. Hotel block gets released June 27th so we set an RSVP date of July 1. We are mailing OOT invites at the 10 week mark and local invites at the end of May. A bit complicated but that worked for us.

  • We are sending ours out the last week of May and the RSVP date is July 16th (I think- I'm having a hard time chosing one!)

  • We're sending ours out around June 15th, by the time everyone get's them there will be a little over a month to RSVP - July 28th. The wedding is August 25th & our final head count is due 15 days before.

    People (that know they are invited... not random people assuming) have been asking me why they havn't got a bridal shower invite yet (went out yesterday, YAY!!!) AND some people are even asking why they havn't got their invite yet. Really? It's still 4+ months away! haha

  • We are planning to send invites out in June. Probably the ones that are going out of the country will be at the beginning of the month and the rest will be toward the end of the month. RSVP date is July 20th, I think.

    P.S. Its starting to freak me out that some of the countdowns are in the 3 month range!

    Our invites will (hopefully) go out the last full week of May, with an RSVP date around the middle of July.
  • Our invites should be going out last week of May/first week of June, with an RSVP date of July 18th!!

  • For our August 18th wedding, we are sending invitations out beginning of June with an RSVP date of July 16th.  Hotel block is being released back to the hotel July 17th.  

     

    We actually have them all stuffed and addressed.  My FI's aunt volunteered to the calligraphy over our spring break (we are both teachers), so last Friday we got to together and worked on them.  It was such a relief to get them done.  All that is left is to put the wax seal on them.  :)

  • My FI and his family have a large family picnic in June, for Father's Day.  We plan to hand deliver our invites to HIS family at this event.  Afterward, we will hand deliver to our co-workers and church family.  I will mail the rest to out of town folks.  Ours has a tear off postcard for RSVP with a July 31st date.  We have exactly 100 invites, he gets 50 and I get 50.  His mother will simply have to deal with that.  :)

  • I sent mine out already! My wedding is August 19th but I"m also in grad school and have finals a week before my wedding date. Therefore I'm doing as much as I can on my 1 month break in between semesters (April-May). I've gotten about 30 RSVPs back thus far.
