I've heard different things I've heard 6-12 months out, 6-10 months out and 6-8 months out. I think it depends on how many out of towners you're gonna have. I'm getting married Aug 6th 2011 and I sent mine out about 2 weeks ago (I went with the 10 month mark LOL). I did magnets so FI and I will be up on our guests' fridges and the Save the Date won't get lost. I think its personal preference really.

We got married in October, and I believe we sent out our save the dates in late April/early May. But like PP said - it depends on how many out of towners you have. I think 6-8 months is a good rule of thumb.
My wedding date is Oct. 1, 2011 as well! I just ordered mine last week and plan to have them sent out by the end of November. It seems to be a popular time for weddings and I know one person in our bridal party has a wedding 4 states away the next day. Eep!
We also have a lot of out of towners coming though, and a cousin of mine is having a Bah Mitzvah next year too, so I just wanted to be sure my magnets are at the top of their fridge before too much came up!
My wedding is 9/10/11 and I'm sending mine in the end of December, early January. I think about 9 months in advance is a good amount of time, but that also depends on how many OOT guest you'll be having.
Our wedding is in May and we are still waiting to get EPICs done... (FI Aunt is taking them and his cousin came back from Japan so she is crazy busy) I may just do date STD with no pics to get them out.
So i am getting Married in March and i still haven't sent mine all out! Can you say slacking?!?!?! We don't have very many OOTers though. Most people know when the date is by WOM so hopefully they won't be like what?!?! Oh Well!
