Do people in your bridal party and the parents of the bride and groom, etc, get a Save the Date and invitation or no? I'm looking at ordering Save the Dates and wont be ordering invitations for a while but I just want to have an idea if I need to send them one or not. These things are expensive! ...

    I sent STDs and invites to everyone, including our parents and bridal party. I also was extra and gave one to each of my 3 stepdaughters (7, 13, and 15) to make them feel included. I wanted to make sure everyone had all of the information so there were no last minute issues.

    I sent invites to everyone (we did a private FaceBook event as a save the date). My parents like to save things and the rsvp cards have the meal choices on them

    We sent STDs and invites to bridal party and parents. The moms are types to like keepsakes. And let's be honest... some of the guys were bound to forget. In fact one of them already has lol. Smiley xd

    My save the dates was online. Everyone got invites though, they loved them! Some were handed out though -- saved some dough.

    I think it's personal preference, for us we are not giving bridal party Save the Dates but are sending them to the family - for us we know our parents will want them as keepsakes. We'll be sending invites to everyone (:

    When did you send out the invites? I’m kind of in the same boat right now and might skip the save the dates (for Jan 11, 2020) and just send invites early

    I sent the invitations out 8 weeks before the wedding. Had them RSVP 4 weeks before.

    We didn't do save the dates, but we will be sending out invitations to everyone including the parents and members of the bridal party.

    Yes, you send them to everyone that you intend on inviting. We sent STD’s, and will next week be sending invites, to our families and bridal party members.

    It's up to you, you know them better than anyone else. I personally sent it to everyone invited, mostly because I know certain family members would want to keep those things.

    I sent save the dates and invites (with RSVP cards) to our wedding party and parents. They may already know the details, but they also need the exact details that everyone else has as well. I would definitely send them one!

    Also to add, our wedding party is still constantly asking the date or reassuring that’s our date. So it would definitely be a nice reminder
