soooo...as i take a deep breath....
We have a venue cap of 175 guest and not willing to change venues. Before I attack the guest list again and cut people, I'd really like to consider just sending out my A list invitations super early to get a better idea on head count. Also to consider, most guests are coming in from out of town, therefore need hotel reservations, and we're not planning on sending save-the-dates (as of yet) because of course we can't pin down the guest list.
And the real question is, how early can I start sending invitations and requesting responses? I don't know the etiquette on that.
Re: Sending invitations
You will not get a good response with A/B invite list, JSYK.
I'd send your invites out 6-8 weeks before the wedding date, and have your RSVP date about a month after you've sent them out.

I gave you a real response.
But FWIW, that statement will probably keep you from getting "real" responses.
Don't do A/B lists. Same reason as why you shouldn't send Save the Dates to some and not all.
PS - With the multiple posts, the knot has been acting up (as usual) and if you refresh or click post more than once, this is the result.
Dresses may be easier to take in than let out, but guest lists are not. -- kate51485
