How in advance do people send invitations and how long to give for the RSVP?

Thank you

    We sent ours out 6 months in advance as our wedding is on a Thursday in august. We gave them 8 weeks to rsvp. Everyone is different to. My friend is getting married 2 days after me, she's not sending her invites out until May.

    Our wedding is 24th July, we sent ours out at the very end of March with and RSVP date of the end of April.

    Evening invites are going out this week which will be just over 11 weeks until the wedding x

    We sent ours 5 months before as most guests weren't local to the area so would need to book hotels, flights, trains etc. Our RSVP date was 2 months before the wedding.

    Ours go out this week and our wedding is in October. H2B has a lot of family that will be travelling so wanted to give them time to sort that.

    We're getting married at the end of August, and sent all of ours (day and evening) at the end of march, and have set the rsvp date for the end of June. We have to give final numbers at the venue 4 weeks before the wedding, so that gives up an extra 4 weeks to chase any stragglers!

    Wedding is next July. We plan to send ours in about April with RSVP date of May - so around 4 weeks to reply. That then gives us a month to chase anyone who's late, before we need to supply numbers to the venue 1 month before in June.

    Our guests will have already had save the dates so hopefully most people will already know if they can make it.

    We are sending out our invitations next week for our September wedding. We've said to RSVP a month later so June which now seems a bit short but we were thinking they would have been finished and posted by now!
