Invitations

you should send your invites out about 3 months before the wedding...

depending on who does them and how long they need to do them, if you are getting calligraphy... i would start looking at about a year to 9 months out... it took me about 3 months to find invites that i liked... and it took almost 3 months to go back and forth with proofs... friday i picked up my invitations and they were printed wrong... so the invitation has to be done over....

I am getting calligraphy done by a friend of my family and since i have a large guest list she needs the invitations sooner....

I paid $300 for 175 Invitations & envelopes (w/printed return address), 175 RSVP and envelopes (w/printed address)

Wow that is a good price. I guess maybe I'll start browsing next month :)

I just ordered mine today and paid uner $400.
I'm not getting them addressed because it's too expensive. I wil either ask a friend to do the caligraphy or I'm considering printing them myself.

You will do fine with $500. There are so many styles to chose from!
