Hello everyone, So I get married in June sent out STD in summer (to day guest only), when would you sent out the invitations and would you send day out then night or all together? my wedding is a Friday wedding so people will need to get it of work for the day so that's why I was thinking of getting them out sooner rather then later. thanks

I was thinking of getting them out as soon as then to have them back for the mid of march time. Are you sending both day and night out together? x

I have given about 1/2 my save the dates out as I have seen people to my wedding in july 2015 as its on a Tuesday! So thought I would give everyone a early heads up , but have got comments like "we'll be there If were still alive! "Its only 18 months away! So annoying was Planning on starting to make my Proper invites when its a year to go, and start with my family as there not so "oh its ages away" and give them out in batches of ten as I make them x then do evening guests, and have a Rsvp for Febuary 2015, then send out evening ones, and if anyone rsvps no can add people from evening to day!

We get married in May on a Bank Holiday Sunday during a Half Term so we sent our day invites start of December and will be sending our evening invites in the mid of Jan with a RSVP of March.
In my opinion, its all about your circumstances of when you are getting married and when your venue need numbers by. Dont forget you also need to give yourself time to sort things like the table plan out too.

Our save the dates will be going out in November (A year to the day) and then the invites will go out in May with a RSVP of September giving us 2 weeks to chase people that don't reply as venue need numbers 6 weeks before hand!

We sent our save the date invites out two years to the day as we are getting married in Greece Nd therefore thought people needed plenty of time. My official invites are going out around April of this year as I email my wedding organiser in Greece and because it miles away I need to time to make sure everything is correct. May sound silly to most people but I have to be organised haha.
Think it depends on circumstances like the ladies said xxxx

I am having a similar dillema!! I need somebody to proof read my invitations to make sure they make sense etc!! Any volunteers? x
CommentAuthorBeckyU98
we sent our STD's out 14 months before wedding. Invites went out to day guests 5 months before and evening guests 4 months before. we are getting married on a friday so sent them out early so people could book days off work etc. i also bumped a few evening people up to the day when i got no's so sending out day first helped for us.
my tip is to not give too long for RSVP deadline. the longer you give them the longer they will take. i am now 12 weeks from the big day and still waiting for a few RSVPs to come back x
