I have been looking at save the dates and I am wondering is everyone sending them to all their potential guests. If i send to everyone i will need around 300, which is fine I am just wondering if people generally do the same or just send them to close people on the list....THANKS!!

Re: STD's Sending them to everyone?
actually you dont need 300...first most people dont send std's to everyone...2nd if you have 300 guests not EACH person gets one...married couples would only get 1 each, same goes with an invitation. If you invite a family the just that 1 household gets 1 std.

STDs can add up. I would just send them to your close friends and family and OOTers who will need to make travel arrangements ahead of time.

Im only sending them to OOT guests. People that I see all the time have been hearing about my wedding since I got engaged, so if they need to be reminded then I feel bad for them.

Re: STD's Sending them to everyone?
I'm only sending my STD's to family and our parents friends...We are not sending them to anyone on our friends or people-from-work lists because things could too easily change when it comes to that.
Plus my friends and work people hear about my wedding all the time haha

Re: STD's Sending them to everyone?
i would only send them to close family and friends who without a question will be invited to your wedding. i personally decided not to send them to my work friends (even though i happed to be really close with some of them) b/c i know some of the work friends i am inviting are friends with some of the people from work that i am most likely NOT inviting. so i really dont want people to see the magnets or talk about it and then have tension when they realize they mnight not be invited. (some people at my work place are very touchy and take these things very personally). so that was my decision. PLUS...you never know if someone leaves your job....you may not talk to them after that and then you may feel weird inviting them but feel like you have to since you sent them an STD. just a thought.

I have the at-work- issue TIMES TWO...me AND fh both work at the same place. People get really touchy about being invited, and with over 400 people in the building there is no way we can invite everyone we know. Besides, our at-work list has changed so many times...

Re: STD's Sending them to everyone?
i just send family and close friends a std. No co-workers because things can change. I have all ready have regrets sending a std to a particular friend of mine who is being a complete jerk to me so i may break 'proper etiq' and not send him an invite after all.
soo choose wisely!!!

Re: STD's Sending them to everyone?
I don't think I am going to do STDs at all. I was planning on it but now I think that it will be a waste for me. We've been engaged for so long I think pretty much everyone knows the date by heart and we don't have that many OOT guests.
Plus our list is soo large right now, I actually wouldn't mind if some people won't be able to make it. I know that sounds terrible but the guest list is getting out of control!!!
