Hello my beauties,
I am loving all of the great tips and tricks on here and have been trying to refine my checklist since I am naturally anal retentive and live by my lists.
We're not necessarily having a "destination" wedding, but the venue is an hour and a half away from us and two and a half hours away from a hand full of my older relatives (of course some guests will also fly in) - so I want to be mindful of the accommodations people will need to make.
I have our Save the Date magnets going out in the next week or so (again, giving plenty of time).
What I am wondering is if sending the invites out at the end of March and making the RSVP deadline June 29th is a little over board or right on the money for our August 1st wedding. The lodging will need to be booked by July 1st and the venue needs our final count 10 days before the wedding.
I figure this will leave some time for any surprises, but I've also heard you shouldn't give too much time in between.
Any advice?
