Give your guests plenty of time to plan for your special day. These can be sent up to a year in advance. Especially if you are planning a summer wedding during the holiday season or a Destination wedding.
Send these out at least 3 months before your wedding date so you can receive the RSVP's back in good time to plan. Or if you just cannot wait to announce your big day send those out as soon as you want to. The earlier the better.
For Guests attending the evening celebrations only.
