I'm getting married next year and beginning to look into organising invitations and I was just wondering how many months before the wedding did people send out the invites?
getting married April 2012 - can't wait

We got married 24th June, requested for invites to be returned to us by 30th April to give us time to chase up on non-respsones. So I reckon we must have sent them around the beginning of April - which also makes it about 3 months.:wave:A highly active brain needs feeding often

sending mine out 12 months before with a second one being sent out 3 months before (1/4 of people attending are from another country so they need the time)
both will be full invitesThe only people I have to answer to are my beautiful babies aged 8 and 50 -
Its 'normal' to send them about 3 months before, but we have decided to send them out 10 months before. We arent sending out Save The Dates, plus our day is on a friday, so we want to give everyone as much notice as possible.

Actually traditionally invites are sent out six weeks before the wedding.Lost my soulmate so life is empty.
I can bear pain myself, he said softly, but I couldna bear yours. That would take more strength than I have -

Six weeks is half three months so not really approximate at all.Lost my soulmate so life is empty.

Sorry if I've annoyed or upset you, it really wasn't meant as a rebuke. I merely pointed out what as far as I'm aware was the traditional time. I was engaged for only a year so find this whole idea of sending out invites way ahead very strange.
Hope everything goes well with all your arrangements.Lost my soulmate so life is empty.
