Save the dates

When do you normally send them out? I still have a while ( 2 years, we just got engaged 6/4)but I just would like a timeline of things. Thanks!

    8-10 months head of time. We sent ours out 9 months before because a lot of people were traveling from out of town.

  • I would also suggest sending date savers ONLY to the VIPs (immediate family, closest of friends) whom you're certain will be invited. Relationships, locations, and most of all, BUDGETS can change a lot in two years. If you send someone a saver, you're obliged to invite them no matter how much further down the road it is. So by sending only to VIPs, you won't get in sticky situations. Better to have fewer date savers go out with more invitations, since the other way around is not polite.
