You also need to have the location of the wedding picked out so guests can prepare ahead of time. Save-the-date cards are a nice way of letting people know they will be receiving a wedding invitation and to keep that date open. It is proper to send these out anywhere from six to nine months before the wedding. Etiquette states that wedding invitations should be sent six to eight weeks before the wedding. Many couples worry that this does not give out-of-town guests enough time to prepare for travel.
If you are planning a small ceremony with a public reception directly after, send the reception only invitations along with the wedding ceremony invitations no less than three months before the wedding date (and at least ten weeks in advance of the wedding for guests living overseas.)
