When to send your Wedding Invitations

I often get asked how far in advance wedding invitations should be sent out so I thought it might be helpful to share this information on my blog.

If you are sending Save the Dates you can send them out right away while the wedding invitations are typically sent out 8 weeks before the wedding. This allows guests sufficient time to make travel arrangements.

Ask for an RSVP date of 3 weeks before your wedding to allow plenty time for you to make a final head count, assign seats and prepare escort cards. In my experience you will have some late RSVPs that you will need to track down for an answer.

At the least you should send them out six weeks in advance, and set an RSVP date of 2 weeks prior to the wedding.
