A couple people were talking about that a couple pages back... Summary: Some are trying to get them out late October/early November with an RSVP date of February 1st. A couple people already have invites out, but they skipped the STDs (I think Kristy! was one of these brides), dunno about that RSVP date.

I was going to go for early January with an RSVP of March 1st, but now I'm joining the bandwagon and getting moving on those invites! I'm loving the way they are turning out... I will post a draft when they are closer to being complete!

we r (hopefully) getting ours out early october, with an r.s.v.p. date of january 1. we never sent STDs, but did let everyone know via email and word-of-mouth. a few close family members are already booked.

My wedding is in the beginning of May and I have the deposit down on the trip, and I have started making the invitations... other than that I havent done very much :S we are going to Blau Varadero.. I didnt think that the whole 'save the date' was necessary because people are going to need enough notice to be able to save for the trip. Im havent gotten my dress yet either because im getting it made for me and im going to wait closer to the date because Im on a strict 'get-back-into-shape' program HAHA!

We just received our paper from cardsandpockets.com and are going to work on them this week. I am aiming to get them out sometime in OCT and RSVP for FEB. I want to get a general idea and be able to budget stuff as well.

I didn't do an actual invite for our cruise wedding. I did an email to my family stating we where getting married in Bermuda and the info about the cruise. The FI's family we used word of mouth. There's only 2 people, my godfather and his wife who will "possibly" attend from my side. His family there's possibly 9 adults and 3 children! I wish they would just put a deposit down already! Then we have a couple we're friends with that may go, but they're already about to book so that's not a huge deal!

 

I am however giving a cut off of January 31. If you don't have atleast a deposit down by then, you may have to find your own taxi to the wedding resort from the port, and you sure as hell aren't going to have a OOT bag! February 1 I'm starting to order all my stuff for my OOT bags and my personalized sports bottles!

You all are so on the ball! My FI asks me everyday why I am looking at wedding stuff. I'm like HELLOOO! I don't think he has any idea how long it takes to get a dress ordered and fitted! I haven't even sent out STDs because he thinks it's "too early." Grrrr.

I just started to look around for invitations also-I feel like I would rather get it done earlier than later. I am thinking about ordering my stuff from Oriental Trading this week but not sure because I have no idea how many people are coming

haha yeah my fiance asked me why i needed to go shopping for a wedding dress NOW ... i told him when i went to davids a couple weeks ago they were practically yelling at me for not having my dress picked yet!

I'm just starting to get supplies ordered to make my boarding pass invites- I want to get them sent out sometime in October, but... who knows if that will happen. I guess November will be good enough!! I just need to get moving on stuff- this thread shows me just how much I DON"T have even started that I need to get moving on!
