Invitations Addressing

Emily, on February 9, 2020 at 5:30 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 7
Hey all,


I ordered my invites and they get here Monday. I’m not sending invites out until June/July. Would you get ahead start on addressing and filling the envelopes or would you wait until closer to the date? I just worry about people moving and address changes buuuut I don’t know anyone that is moving any time soon.
What would you do ?

    I’ve done a couple of my addresses so far to play with my format. I stopped because I was afraid of people moving, so I’ll probably start again at the beginning of April (to be sent at the beginning of May).

    I would wait. We invited 160 people and addressed all of our invites in like 2 hours spread over some time for hand resting. Then again, I was not nearly as creative as the previous poster. We just wrote them normally in the center of the envelope.

    I would wait. Maybe you can do a few that you knew for a fact won’t be moving like your immediate families.

    I'm in the same position, I already have my invitations and we won't be sending them out until early May but I've considered starting on some of the invites. I might go through and write out envelopes for those who we'll be hand delivering to. I know it's not "etiquette" but our close friends and family know that we're on a budget. I don't think it would hurt to do a few a night so your hand doesn't get tired.

    These look amazing! Was this some form of template or are you amazingly creative? 😊🙌🏼

    I used a couple inspiration pictures from Pinterest, but designed them myself and then had my Cricut write them (my calligraphy isn't nearly that good!).

    I'd wait. Especially since you have time before you plan on sending them out. If you send them out in June, I'd say start addressing them the end of May. If you plan on sending them out in July, start at the end of June. That way you have a chance to correct addresses if needed.
