There are countless parts of planning your wedding that could cost you a good bit of stress and money, one being your wedding invitations. The longer you wait to send out your invitations the less people will ultimately show up to your wedding, meaning less gifts and checks! To avoid this problem you need to follow a few important guidelines and steps to make sure your guests are properly informed.
- Consider sending a “Save the Date” invitation six to eight months before the wedding date. This will be much less formal than the actual invitation and will give little information, basically just the date and request it be saved.
- Make sure that the wonderful humans that are organizing your wedding shower are well informed of the date and time of your wedding. They will be asked by a lot of people leading up to the wedding for this information and should be prepared.
- Be sure to send out your formal wedding invitation six to eight weeks before the wedding date. Make sure it is clearly written what the date, time and address for the wedding is so there are no mix ups!
Following these three easy steps should ensure that your wedding goes off without a hitch!
