Anyone know when the wedding invitations should be ordered and how long do they take to print? I have 6 months until my wedding. What's the latest I can order?

Re: Ordering invites
Depends on where you are ordering and what kind of invitations you want. I work in invitations and we take 4-6 weeks to print and turn them around - but that is after final sign off from the bride... which can take 2-4 weeks depending on how quick decisions are made etc.
I'm long-winded.. short answer is to back up 8 weeks from your wedding date to send them out....then back out another 8 weeks to be safe and make sure to count in time for calligraphy if you want to do that. Better to get them in sooner and have them sit around for a few weeks than rush yourself. I say place your order at least 4-5 months out.

So in order words, I better get cracking! :) Thanks for your help.
