Wedding and reception preparation - When to Allocate the Invitations

Before sending out your daily routine invitations your basic wedding arrangements to remain finalised so that information on the arrangements can be added in on the invitations. This will include the time and date of the ceremony, wedding venue and the response venue.

If the basic wedding arrangements have not been finalised then perhaps it might be it is best to send out 'Save The Date' cards following your date is announced considering that it means family members using the key friends, who are not the main wedding party, are up to date. Many people book their holidays just after conception, so if your date for the wedding is planned for hot months or other holiday period, it is advisable to accept as much notice as you can be. Just remember that twenty-four hours a day sent someone a 'Save The Date' card they'll expect to receive an invite!

It is usual to send out invitations about three months before the wedding day which means that your guests have enough notice to build travel plans and rent out accommodation, particularly if a person receive guests coming in after having a abroad. Try not to emerge from it any later than 2 months before the date.

When sending out your invitations you need to include an RSVP date. The RSVP date needs to set to allow you enough time to plan your catering, seating blueprints, place settings etc. Allow about 3 weeks to allow you to do this. Check for any caterers, wedding DJ and other alike suppliers to see once they require confirmation of quantities. So your RSVP date needs to be 3 weeks before your wedding date.

All the invitations have to be sent out at the same time, to avoid any imagined favouritism.

Traditionally the bride's parents organise the invitations, as they are the hosts with all the wedding, but if you are hosting the wedding, the invitations should be sent out by the couple themselves.
