I hope you had a beautiful wedding.

Usually 6-8 weeks before the wedding, although many send out “save the date” cards earlier.

I sent mine out six weeks prior.

6 weeks for a formal invitation but much earlier for a ‘save the date’ notification

Six weeks is the tradition, but lots of people send out less formal advice about the date, especially if guests are likely to have to travel.

I dont know if this helps but my Daughter-In-Law sent out save the date cards about 3 months before the wedding and the actual invites 7-8 weeks before due to needing numbers of adults and children coming. You can also include an acceptance card with : Yes I can and will be coming or No I am sorry i cannot make it and how many children if any.

im almost certain that proper etiquette is 3 months before the wedding.

You should send them out with enough time for responses for any deadlines you have – e.g. finalising numbers.

You can send them them out when it suits you,l would send them two months beforehand.Best of Luck on your Wedding Day! Cheers!

Marrying at the end of March, I think I would send them out around half of January.

Its generally about 6 – 8 weeks prior to the wedding and taking into account things like Christmas (if you are getting married in Jan or Feb (to allow for delays in postage)
