STD - How many months prior?

How many months before your wedding did you all send out your STD's? I just got my STD magnets yesterday and I'm getting married on 11/6/05. Is April too soon?

April is fine. STD's should go out anywhere from 6 - 12 months in advance and you fall right in the middle of that range. I sent mine out about 8 months in advance.

really? My FMIL was surprised I even ordered them now. She thought they should go out in June. I already blocked rooms at 2 hotels and would like to get that info out with the STD's.

Thanks!!

The wedding is July 2005, it is only 4 months... which is fine for the invitations, but I thought it was too late for the STD's.

I could DEF be wrong though...

that definitely does seem a little late for a s-t-d

Well you may have been on their 'B' list, or... like your FH said, they do things a little bit different.

I would say 6-8 months prior to the wedding date.
