When do you send invites?

As in jan 2011?! id send now so you miss the chrstmas rush, plus time for guests to reply!!!!

We're getting married in February and i'm getting mine ready to send now so they don't get lost up in christmas.

As for the wording, we're in the same prediciment, we're hosting the wedding ourselves and i can't figure out what to put yet!

OOhhhh eck I didn't even think about the Christmas post! I better get my friend on to making the invites ASAP!

Thanks for the quick replys x

Oooh yes id be wanting to send them by next week to be honest - gives people plenty of time to organise things and reply :-)

Hi ladies ?

We say 3 months before. Heres some wording examples if its any help http://www.lilypondcards.com/wordingexamples.htm

Blimey. You haven't had your invites made yet?

It's usual to send them 4-8 weeks in advance but like others have said, you don't want them getting caught up in the Christmas rush.

As for wording:

..............

Would like to invite

..............

To celebrate their marriage

Or

...........................
Invite you to share in their love
And happiness as they exchange
Vows of marriage and begin their
New life together

Or

...................................
would be delighted if
....................................
would join them to celebrate their marriage

Hi there, I came across this site for wording invites when the wedding is being hosted by the bride and groom - some are a bit over the top but some are quite sweet and different. See what you think?
