Etiquette
Our most common question.
Q: When do I send out my invitations?
A: It depends on your type of event.
So Let's Dive In.....
Parties
Birthday - Baby - Wedding - Retirement - Anniversary - Graduation - Debutante
Mail Date: 3-4 weeks prior to event
RSVP Date: 1-2 weeks prior to event
Exceptions can always be made to any timeline.
The main factors taken into consideration when determining your target dates include
guest travel requirements, catering and vendor deadlines, and holidays.
Wedding
Save the Dates - Wedding Invitation Suite
Save the Dates
Mail Date: 6-8 months prior to wedding
Wedding Invitation Suite
Mail Date: 8-10 weeks prior to wedding
RSVP Date: 4 weeks prior to wedding
Weddings with majority of guests being local: 8 weeks
Destinations or majority of guests requiring travel: 10 weeks
Anywhere within this time frame is considered proper etiquette to mail your invitations. This just gives everyone a little wiggle room for final details and delivery.
