Re: RSVP question
Mine was about three weeks before our wedding date. This give you some time, there were a lot of people that responded late. Still some that didn't!!!

i was thinking of sending them by the first of october which gives people 4 weeks to respond if the RSVP date is Nov 1 - is that good?

Re: RSVP question
I did mine early....i guess it depends when you have to give your final count. I have to 2 weeks before my wedding so i wanted the RSVP date to be even 1 week before that. So i guess mine was 3 weeks before...I sent out the invites about 8-10 weeks in advance. We tried to do rolling invites and send out mroe when we got no's but we didn't get no's in enough time to do this....

I think 1 month before is fine even though people just blindly ignore the RSVP date.

Thats perfect- I wouldnt give any more than 4 weeks because people will forget to send them

Re: RSVP question
I was originally going to do a month (Oct. 6 for a Nov. 8 wedding) but I think I'm going to change it to 2 months (Sept) which will give me more time to track down anyone that doesn't respond and send out to my B list (if possible).

Re: RSVP question
my rsvp was 6 weeks before my wedding and i gave guests 6 weeks to respond. i sent out invites March 1, rsvp April 15 and wedding May 31. Only this week have I had cancellations.

Re: RSVP question
Nov. 1st is perfect, that way you have more then enough time to follow up with people which dont respond and it is not too far from the wedding for your guests to have last minute changes.
