Reading-fail. Post edited for sake of author's pride. =P

Wedding date is s september 7. Rsvp date is august 17. Will send out invitations june 3

@Someday Mrs W, sure I could! I thought the standard window of time was to send the invitations 6-8 weeks in advance of the wedding, but maybe I'm wrong on that? I'm pretty excited to send them out, wouldn't mind doing it earlier at all :-)

I would bump the date up a week and only give yourself two weeks to track down late RSVPers. I think you will have to track down less. The further out I get an invitation the less likely I am going to remember to respond (just being honest).

Anyway, I think I am going with I need numbers final September 1st for September 7th wedding, so RSVP due August 17th. So mail out invites by July 20th (July 13th for OOT). I might move that up a little bit more.

Wedding date is June 15th, RSVP date is May 18th, sent invitations on April 15th.

They usually say to take one month before your wedding as your rsvp date and one month prior to that is when you send them out. Unless it's OOT!

I sent invites out 2 months prior

RSVP date May 11th 3 weeks before date.

Caterer need count May 17th 1 week after RSVP date

We can increase our count 72hours prior to our wedding but we can not decrease it.

I am waiting on 7 couples.

Pretty Good!

Our time lines our similar.

I mis-read your post--if your wedding is in August, then I think you're fine.

I'm one of the slow-to-reply guests.. I like lots of time, lol, but you should be fine where you put it. Maybe make your RSVP time August 1st, actually.

Man, I fail. This is why I can't grade papers and post at the same time. -.-

Wedding date 6/15, RSVP date 5/25, sent them out on 4/20.

I think your timeline sounds fine, but you could afford to push the RSVP date back a week. I think what Tatiana said is true of a lot of people. Also if you have a "B list" the later RSVP will make it less obvious

Wedding date is August 24th, RSVP date is August 3rd and I plan to send out invites no later than June 29th with a goal of getting them out by June 15th.

ETA my final headcount is due August 14th

LOL @ Mrs W :-)

Tatiana and Ren, thanks for the suggestion! I might push the RSVP date to 2 August, and send the handful of OOT invites a week early (17 June) so that they have advance notice and to potentially help me get some early declines.

My wedding date is September 21, 2013, my RSVP date is August 31, 2013, I am sending invites out on July 27, 2013.

My wedding date is May 17th, my RSVP date is April 17th, I sent out invitations on March 8th.

We wanted to give people plenty of time because everyone was coming from out of town. We had all our RSVPs in by April 1st... I think we were just lucky.

Wedding date is June 21, 2013 and RSVP date is June 1, 2013 and i sent out my invites April 26, 2013

Wedding Date 10/5/13 and RSVP 8/16/13

We need to have the head count early to our venue plus we have a lot of out of state guests.

Sending out invites sometime in July

My wedding is November 30, and right now my RSVP date is November 11, but I don't think that's going to leave me enough time.

My wedding date is June 29, 2013, my RSVP date is June 1, I sent out invitations on May 3.

Wedding Aug 24th, sending invites out 1st week of June, RSVP last week of July. Our wedding is somewhat of a destination and if people decline I have many on the "B" list I'd like to still have time to invite. I don't have exact dates yet but I will by Saturday FH made the invites we need to finalize RSVP date and take it to the printers.

Our wedding date Is July 12, 2013....sent out invites March 2, 2013 (lot of out of town guests)....RSVP date was May 3 but they have till the end of the week really.
