RSVP & Save the Date

Winnar

Is it bad to have the RSVP in the save the date instead of the invite and then only send invites to the people that RSVP?

And anyone who receives a save the date MUST receive an invitation.  Plans change and its tough to be 100 percent certain about your schedule 6--8 months in advance.

All the PPs have said exactly what I was going to say.

[QUOTE]The problem with asking people to RSVP to a Save the Date is that it's WAY too far in advance. So I would just do it the "normal way".  Send STDs now (or not at all since you're six months out), and then send invitations with RSVPs 6-8 weeks before the wedding.

A save the date is an announcement that you are getting married on a certain date and the addressee will receive an invitation in the future.  It's not an invitation, and doesn't require a response.  Only send STDs to those you know you will invite to the wedding.
