Custom Wedding Invitation Timeline

Custom Wedding Invitation Timeline

We know that wedding planning is no easy task but, when you break it down it is definitely doable… and even fun! Stick to this wedding invitation timeline and all your stationery needs will be totally taken care of. Now you can focus on finding the perfect dress!

You’ve got the diamond ring and you’ve already set the date so it’s time to spread the word! Order your save the dates and address stamps 9 to 12 months before the wedding. Give yourself two weeks for assembly and addressing and then mail your save the dates 6-8 months before the big day.

Now onto the fun stuff. 4-6 months before your wedding date make sure you order your invitation suite. That includes the invitation, reply card, map, reception cards and any extra add-ons.  As the day gets closer and closer, order your day of details such as the programs, menus, table numbers, place cards and signage 3-4 months before you tie the knot. Send your invites out about 6-8 weeks before the big day and watch those RSVPs roll in.

Congratulate yourself on planning the wedding of your dreams! Just don’t forget about those thank you cards within 1-3 months after you’re a happy newlywed.
