When to Order Your Wedding Invitations

Most experts suggest say three to six months before the ceremony if you have the venues and date arranged. But I would suggest give yourself as much time as possible to not be rushed. Stuffing and addressing envelopes takes more time than you think, especially if it has to be done when you have a lot of other things going on, like other wedding stuff you have to do or stuff that you are busy with at work. One bride who ordered wedding invitations from me was a teacher who decided to order invitations in December for her July wedding. She chose to do that because she planned on stuffing and addressing the invitations during her holiday break from school. I would say, look at your own schedule and see when its the most convienient for you to do these. Venue arrangements are not likely to change. If in the  unlikely event they do change you can call, send them an email or even a postcard, it's not a big deal if you give people notice. Unlike a lot of things you have to do for your wedding, the deadline to get this part of your wedding stuff done is entirely up to you. My advice? If it makes you feel better to just get them done and checked off the list, and you have the time to do them, I would say get them ordered sooner than later.
