hey 9/22/12 weddings, when are you sending your invitations?

I am thinking the 2nd week in July... when are you sending out your invitations?  I am asking for a RSVP date by August 15.  How about you?

Re: hey 9/22/12 weddings, when are you sending your invitations?

  • Our RSVP date is August 18th so we're pretty close. We will be sendin invites out around the third week in July.
  • We're sending invites around 7/22. I think our rsvp date is 9/07 but I am not positive. We have a pretty good idea of who is coming or not already so it's kind of just a formality.

  • We're sending ours on July 23 (we were gonna do the 22nd, but it's a Sunday).  RSVP date is August 20th.

    I actually mailed mine on 6/1, since everyone is traveling with an RSVP date of 8/15.

    mailing 7-23-12   rsvp 8-22-12
  • I never know if I should reply to these as I have done things a little different in many cases due to it being a DW.
    We are sending ours out June 22nd, with an RSVP date of Aug 22nd. Rooms are released mid July, and being everyone is travelling I wanted the invites to get out as a reminder that they need to book if they haven't yet (many did thanks to the STDs)
  • Sending mine ~ July 10 with an RSVP of Sept 1.

  • Sending 7/22 (maybe sooner since shower invites go out first week of July).
    RSVP Sept 3.

    I think RSVP more than a month in advance is a bit much (Except in the DW situation, which makes sense since the block is released long before the RSVP date). Most places don't need a final count more than 2 weeks in advance.

    My final count is due 10 days before the wedding, that gives me 9 days to follow up. I'll have FI or FMIL call their side, my mom will call my side, and I'll call friends. NBD.

  • I'm thinking first or second week in July for our DW.  Though we sent out STDs so everyone got the heads up and has the info necessary to book rooms.  RSVP deadline is Aug. 26, I believe.  
  • I am sending out my out of country and state ones this weekend only b/c it is a destination wedding and there is an event called Elk Fest the same weekend as the wedding and hotel are not allowing room blocks that weekend. We have more out of town guests then in-state that have the potential to come and stay. our RSVP date is Aug 15.

    <div>Our's want it 3 weeks ahead. That's why our's is so far out. It sucks, but ya gotta deal with it I guess. Thankfully their food is delish! lol</div>
  • We have a document addressing this on our facebook group.  You should check it out!

    We are sending international invitations TOMORROW!  Regular invitations July 7th with an RSVP date of August 11th (5 weeks to RSVP, RSVP date 6 weeks before the wedding).  My vendors require 3 weeks notice, like morena's.  I wanted 3 weeks to track people down because I want to give the USPS a few extra days to deliver RSVPs and I expect FI's family to be a real issue with RSVPs.  Hope this helps!

    We are aiming to send July 15th, but if FMIL gets them done sooner, and I can get them all addressed, we'll send them sooner. RSVP date is August 15th.

  • I am rethinking my decision to sen them out on August 1 with RSVP of August the 30th. I don't like to give to much room for people to forget. But now I am thinking maybe it should be closer to the second week of July than first week of August,...

  • We are sending them out 7/23 with RSVP of 9/1.
  • Sent ours out today with an RSVP of Sept. 10th since a fair amount of guests will still be students and we don't have to have the final count until a week before. Most of our guests are people that will reply asap also.
