Hello! I am trying to decide when we should send out our invites. The wedding is June 12, and the majority of guests will be coming from out of state. (Our STDs went out in November). My dilemma is that our reception venue space can be divided up into three separate "rooms" and we need to let them know by April 12 if we will need the entire space, or if they can block off one third of the space potentially to hold another event.
Because of this, I need to have a rough head count by April 12 to know if we will need the entire space to accommodate all of our guests, or if the venue can "release" one third of the space for another event. If we do release part of the space, our food and beverage minimum goes down $600, so we could potentially save a chunk of change if our confirmed guests list winds up being small enough.
FI and I were thinking of sending out the invites sometime in February, but that is four months in advance and I am afraid it might be too early. What are your thoughts? TIA!
