Re: invitations????
I was thinking late March. B/c I will have a better understanding where I stand and if I need more guest I have a B list. ( people I would have liked but could not invite b/c I was over more limit)

Re: invitations????
see even if put a specific date on the rsvp doesnt mean everyone will respond back BEFORE that date... some may still sent it out the day of rsvp date..
so just to be safe, you want to give yourself enough time to expect late rsvp's...
Thats the reason I put april as my rsvp date, giving me people another week to mail it out..
Eventually we'd have to make some phone calls anyways!

Re: invitations????
that is sooo true.
Ok I was thinking mailed out BY 3/16/06
RSVP 4/21/06 then do final head count the following weekend 4/29/06 that gives them 1 extra week
your are the same date as me 2
I am sooo observant

Re: invitations????
Your RSVP date should be at least 1 month prior to the wedding date. My invites are already in and my RSVP date is March 31st. From there you should send out invites 6-8 weeks in advance, so I will be sending mine out Between the 1st and 2nd Week in February. Also, give yourself enough time in case you have a B-list.
Good luck!

Re: invitations????
How long before my wedding should I set my RSVP date?
Your RSVP date should be 3-4 weeks before the wedding date.

Re: invitations????
Sending out the invites 2 months prior w/ an RSVP date of 1 month prior, so I can get my head count in by 2 weeks prior.

me too, although I heard on a holday weekend its better to send them 10 weeks prior?? but we did send STD's so maybe that negates the 10 week thing.
