When to send invitations when not sending Stds

Tayler, on April 29, 2019 at 10:17 PM Posted in Planning 1 8
Hello all! I am getting married April, 26th 2020. I’m hoping to save some money by not sending STD. I’m curious when I should send out invitations. My wedding is on a Sunday so I’d like to give people a little extra notice in case they’d like to take Monday off. Most of my OT guests know the date so I’m not super worried about them. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

    I would send them out like 10 weeks before the event. Typically you send them 8-10 weeks out.

    Hi date twin!! I’d recommend 10 weeks especially since you have OOT guests. That’s what I am doing. I am also doing STDs but I don’t think they are absolutely necessary

    I think 3 months in advance is plenty! We are also having a Sunday wedding and I think most people lost their save the dates because we sent them by email very far in advance 🤷🏻‍♀️ We have had a decent amount of declines but none due to the fact that it’s a Sunday... most of our declines have been either from people who live super far away (like across the country) and can’t afford the travel, and also because we are getting married in early June so has conflicted with some graduations. But notifying our guests sooner wouldn’t have made any of these declines into accepts!

    Im not doing save the dates either. I think we're going to mail ours out around 9-10 weeks.

    Hi Tayler! Did you decide when to send your invitations out? Are you making them yourself?

    I think around mid January! No I’ll probably wait for a good deal at one of the sites like Minted.
