When are u sending Save the Dates?

Are you girls sending out save the dates? We're having a lot of out of town guests, so I'm trying to figure out the best time to send them.

Our wedding in June 09, but I feel like if we send them out now people will think we're crazy for sending them so early, lol. Maybe 1 year before the wedding?

I don't know if this matters...but we aren't having an engagement party.

Thanks!

Re: When are u sending Save the Dates?

Hey there....I'm getting married a year before you (almost exactly!) and about 75% of our guests are from out of town. I have the STD's but haven't sent them out yet.

I'll probably send them out this month. I think 6-9 months is plenty of time. Honestly I think that if you send them out too early people will forget about them.

Re: When are u sending Save the Dates?

I was thinking a year before the wedding would be good. My wedding is during the week so that is the reason for the STD's and we have some people from OOT

Re: When are u sending Save the Dates?

I was gonna send them out a year in advance, or at the engagement party, since that will also be a year away from the wedding

Re: When are u sending Save the Dates?

I am thinking of handing mine out at our engagment party in the spring, and mailing the rest out around that time too. Since mine is during a holiday weekend, I want to get them out a little earlier.

Re: When are u sending Save the Dates?

We already sent ours...even though we know it is really early but we have been together forever and to avoid everyone asking us when the big day is we just sent them out in August.

Re: When are u sending Save the Dates?

I am definitely sending save the dates b/c I am getting married over Labor Day weekend so I don't want people to book vacations and be unable to come...I am going to send them out just before the one year mark.

Re: When are u sending Save the Dates?

Yes I am going to send them out one year before as well. We are getting married the weekend before Thanksgiving so I don't know if people will be traveling then so I will be sending them out this time next year.
