When Should Wedding Invitations Be Sent? (Wedding Etiquette & Timeline)

One of the most frequent questions couples ask during wedding planning is: "When should wedding invitations be sent?". Proper timing allows guests to plan their schedules and outfits comfortably, while helping you finalize venue seating and catering with precision.

1. Phased Wedding Invitation Timeline

  • Save the Date (6-8 Months in Advance): Essential for peak summer weddings or destination/international guests.
  • Official Digital Invitation (6-8 Weeks in Advance): Sent with all details including ceremony time, venue Waze/Maps navigation, and RSVP forms.
  • RSVP Deadline (2-3 Weeks Prior): Essential for finalizing final table counts with the venue.
  • Automated WhatsApp Reminder (24-48 Hours Prior): A seamless reminder sent directly to guests with live GPS location and table numbers.
