Wedding postponed. New invitations?

JenB, on October 6, 2018 at 4:59 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 14

My fiance and I have decided to postpone our wedding from October 13 to June of next year. We have already informed everyone. I was wondering, do we send out new invitations? Thanks for the advise, I have no idea what the proper etiquette is on this. Smiley heart

    I would send new ones so you can send out new RSVP cards.

    I would send new ones. How else would they know the date has changed?

    You still need to have them rsvp for the new date. They can’t tell you for sure now whether they’ll make it in June.

    You need to send new RSVPs.

    October vs June is a big difference.

    If people already rsvp'd then you will need them to re-do that. But if everything else is the same, you could just tell them that.

    I would send out new invites...long time between October and June....people’s lives change. Definitely make sure that whoever you sent the invites to originally get the new one as well.

    I like this idea. On the post card maybe you can include the website to rsvp and say something along the lines of we've changed our date please rsvp AGAIN if you will be in attendance.

    I would reset all the RSVP's on the website so you can tell who has responded and not. And then yes, send new invites to prompt them to do it again. Otherwise, you will likely end up with a bunch of empty seats, from people who just forgot, or who could come for the first date but not this one in June.
