Invitations and rsvp

Save the dates this month, invitations 6-8 weeks before. Ask your venue when they need the final head count to decide on a RSVP date. We are doing one month before so we can track down any stragglers

Invitations 6-8 weeks before and I would suggest your RSVP due date a month before so that you have time to chase people down that haven't responded before your due date with vendors.

I agree with Sherry and Neeva.

If out-of-staters are a big concern for you, you could always send those ones a week before to give more leeway and time for responses.

I sent out my invites mid august for a November wedding. but majority of my guests were traveling out of state. my venue also needed numbers one month in advance. a lot will depend on when your venue needs your final count.

Invitations typically go out 6-8 weeks before your wedding with a RSVP deadline of 2 weeks before your final headcount is due. I would send your save the dates now, if you have not already, since you will have many out of town guests.
