Yayyyy! I was so relieved when I got mine out.  I have 35 guests who have already put their deposits in  It's exciting getting the RSVPs in the mail.

May 11, 2013 Bride!  We are getting married at the Iberostar Tucan, Playa del Carmen. 

 

I’m so glad I found this forum.  I’ve already gotten so many great ideas from you girls!  I’m working on the STD and wedding website as we speak.  So excited!

Congrats!!

Hey to answer your question, we arriving may 16 and we are asking our guest to arrive may 16-19th. Are letting your guest stay at other resorts beside beaches?

Don't feel behind.  I sent mine out early because I wanted to know this far in advance what the cost would be and be able to relay this info to our friends and family so they could save well in advance ... making it more possible for people to come.

 

I also knew by sending invites so early that a lot of people wouldn't be able to commit at this time, so I put on my RSVP "ask me again in 6 months".  At that point I will arrange for another group rate for anyone ready and wanting to get a good deal!  I've had a number of people select this, but I also have about 35 people who have already paid their deposits

Hmm, I thought I posted a link in this thread, but I guess not. These are a 95% accurate representation of what the final invites looked like:

I sent mine last week, you're not behind!! It's still pleanty of time for guests to plan (and save). You couldn't really book flights much earlier than now anyway. When are you planning on sending the formal invites?

Well our save the dates have our wedding website link, so people can plan ahead and get travel agent info, so they can even book if they want to. Planning on sending formal invites in November with a reply date in February. I think 6 and 3 months is a good amount of time since people already have the save the dates 9 months out.
