10/26, 10/27, and 10/28 Brides... Invites?

Just wondering when all of us end of the month brides are dropping invites in the mail?  My RSVP date is September 28th and I'm hoping to put everything in the mail by the end of this week.

Re: 10/26, 10/27, and 10/28 Brides... Invites?

  • I dropped mine off at the post office on Monday.  I have already had some calls letting me know they received them.  I put an rsvp date of 9/26, exactly one month before.

    I didn't want to wait any longer because I know some of my guests have to request off work at least a month in advance (wedding is on a Friday).  I did send out STD's but I know people have their own agenda and my wedding is the most important thing in the world to them.  lol.

  • We put ours in the mail Monday night, and have the RSVP date set for 10/5. Our venue needs final numbers 2 weeks before, so that gives us about 10 days to contact the non-RVSPers.

    My mom thinks we sent them WAY too early, esp because we sent STDs ("which are totally unnecessary and a waste of money"), but I don't care. A majority of our guests live out of town. I want them to have plenty of time to plan!
  • I sent mine out 1 1/2 weeks ago.  I already have a third of my RSVPs back.  My RSVP date is 10/1/12.

  • I"m going to finish putting mine together this weekend and get them in the mail next week.

    I need to remember to go to the post office and get the stamps.  Every day I remind myself in the morning and by the end of the day I have forgotten!
  • I'm hoping to send them out tomorrow.  My bridal shower is on Saturday and I'd like for my guests to have gotten them by then.  My RSVP date is 9/27.

  • i sent mine out in july...i knw thats freakishly early.  Our RSVP deadline is September 28.
  • I'm actually freaking out a bit because we pick ours up next week so they will go out end of next week.  I just ordered the stamps. Our wedding is 10/28 and the RSVP date is 9/28.  I'm worried that mailing them 8 weeks in advance isn't enough.  Although we did send STDs, which makes me feel a bit better.

  • I just got the last 2 addresses that I needed, so I am going to finish them up this weekend and either drop them in the mail this weekend or Monday (exactly 2 months before wedding). My RSVP date is October 1, and we need to provide final numbers to the caterer 2 weeks prior. 
    My mom thinks the invites should have already been sent out and is trying to rush me to get them out already, but majority of our guests are local (only 6 OOT who will probably not come due to health), and everyone already knows about it they are just waiting for the official invite.

  • Whew, good to see I'm about on track.  My mom and FMIL just sent out shower invites, so I was a little nervous about that.  Oh well.

    I'm so ready to drop them.  I feel like that that's the last BIG thing to deal with!

  • Sent mine on Monday. RSVP date October 5th
  • I sent mine out July 31st, RSVP date is August 31st. My plans were to be done with completely everything by October 1st so I can get back to my actual life and try to relax before hand. Lol, planning our wedding has completely taken over. My poor plants are dying!  Smile I know people are going to be late and what not... but I think 1 month is long enough to figure out whether you're coming or not. I guess we'll find out huh?
