Timing Your Wedding Invitations Just Right

Hey there, lovebirds! Planning your dream wedding is a whirlwind of excitement, but when should you send out those all-important wedding invitations? The Luxury Wedding Co. has you covered with some quick tips!

EARLY BIRDS CATCH
THE RSVP:

Sending your invitations 6 to 8 weeks before the big day gives your guests ample time to RSVP and plan their attendance. For destination weddings, send them 3 months ahead.

SAVE THE
DATES FIRST:

Before you hit them with the main event – the wedding invitation – consider sending out save the date cards. These are like a little teaser trailer for your big day. They should be mailed 6 to 12 months ahead of time, giving your guests a heads-up so they can mark their calendars.

RSVP PRETTY
PLEASE:

Remember to set an RSVP deadline that allows you to finalize your guest list and seating chart in a timely manner. Ideally, you should ask your guests to RSVP about 3 to 4 weeks before the wedding. This gives you a buffer to chase down those stragglers who can't seem to decide if they're coming or not.

FASHIONABLY LATE? NAH NOT HERE!

On the flip side, don't be fashionably late with your wedding invitations. Sending them out too close to your wedding date might leave your guests feeling rushed or unable to attend. You want them to be as excited about your wedding as you are, so don't cut it too close to the wire.

TECH SAVY
INVITES:

In today's digital age, there's no harm in mixing things up a bit. E-vites and wedding websites can be a hip and eco-friendly way to send out your invitations and track RSVPs. Just make sure to include all the essential details like date, time, location, and a link to your wedding website for more information.

MAKE YOUR
MARK:

Don't forget that your wedding invitations are a reflection of your personality as a couple. Get creative with your designs, fonts, and colors to make them uniquely yours. Whether you go for classic elegance, rustic charm, or modern minimalism, let your personalities shine through.

So there you have it, lovebirds – a guide to nailing the timing for your wedding invitations. Sending them out just right ensures that your guests will be as thrilled as you are to celebrate your special day. Now, go ahead and put that stamp on it, seal the envelope with a kiss, and send out your love story to the world!
