Invitations / Summer girls...

My wedding is the 16th of July
My response date is 6/16 and I originally wanted them out by 4/30.

Well, I haven't even addressed them yet I am waiting to hear back from my calligrapher.

She said it will take a week or two (which is fine because her price is INCREDIBLE)
but how long do u think it will take to stuff 120 invites.

Can I start early? How, if she has the envelopes?


ETA - spelling

It took us almost 4 hours to do 105 but I have bows to tie

If you have a few people and an assembly line...shouldn't be too bad

I have agita - I feel like I am 'late' on this - but I am on time, not early.

I wanted to get them out earlier. Oh well:

It'll be fine. We won't have ours back until later next week....I think we'll still have in the mail by May 2 or 3rd.

Who did you end up using for calligraphy?

This was a tedious process for me and took several hours. Stuff you can do before your envelopes come in:

Number your response cards if you're doing that. Put stamps on reply envelopes. Any assembly of invitiations necessary (I had bows to stick on). Get everything together in piles for assembly.
