When are you sending your invites....

I know we have done this poll before but since its now down to the wire I wanted to see where every one stands.....

Re: When are you sending your invites....

  • 11 weeks. I'm sending the 2nd week of July as my entire side is OOT.

  • I'm doing 12 weeks, we didn't send out a STD and some of my FI's family is OOT.
    It doesn't have to be perfect to be everything I want!

  • I am thinking 12 weeks because we are having a DW but that could change since I don't even have invites yet....

  • I'm planning about 810 weeks. I had sent out some baby shower invites that arrived a month LATE for some guests so I don't want that to happen with the wedding!

  • I'm sending mine out 3 months in advance. In my area we don't do STDs so invites are sent a bit earlier then the standard "6-8 weeks."

  • I honestly put 16 weeks, cause that's my hope (LOTS of OOT guests and 400 people on the guest list) We are also a farming family and I won't have any of my FI's family from the first week of September until the wedding....

  • I'm doing between 8 and 9 weeks, most are OOT but we sent out STD's in January so everyone is already aware it is coming.

    I'm doing 4 (end of June) months becuase my wedding is on a Sunday and I'd like to give people the chance to make arragements to take Monday off work if they desire.
  • I am aiming for 8 weeks. I don't really have that many OOT guests and if I do, I doubt those people would attend (distant family we HAD to invite or people in the military).

  • I'm sending them out the 1st week in August, with an RSVP date of 9/22 for an 10/13 wedding, so i put 11 weeks if i counted right. We did STDs and all but i feel if i dont get them in the mail by the 1st week of August the rest of my summer is super busy that it will keep getting pushed back. That way my guests have almost a full 2 months to RSVP and then whoever doesnt i have time to hunt them down until i need to call with final #s with isnt until Oct 8th (5 days before).

  • Mine will be somewhere between the 11-12 weeks. I want them out by August 1st. So, somewhere between the last week of July to the first week of August. My RSVP date is October 1st. So, this will be 2 months for them to RSVP for my Oct 20th wedding date.

  • We're probably sending them out mid-July for our Oct 13 wedding (there are some out of towners, but all of them already know the date). We just set the date in April, so we didn't do save the dates.
