Most people go with 3-6 months before the wedding but my venue needs final numbers by January my wedding is in July next year so we are sending them October time so they have plenty of time to get back to us x

Hi I agree with Alice I would say about 6 months before :)

I personally think for an August wedding I'd be doing it around Dec-Jan. I think a lot of people book their holidays around then for the following year, I certainly know we do at work x

We are getting married next august. We are sending out save the dates in the next few weeks as we know a lot of people book holidays straight after their summer hols ready for the next year. And going to send out the invites about january/febuary time. X

It depends if you are sending save the dates. If you are then 3-6 months in advance. If not then probably a bit earlier x

Its 2 weeks notice for the venue finalisation not invites. We will be putting rsvp by june 20th on ours. Plenty of notice for us to get all final numbers, there will always be a few that either forget or are late to rsvp. Our wedding is aug 3rd so you could do beginning of july instead.x
