By Sara Haese
Invites wedding planning ... May you not only to realize there really are the organization and preparation of your invitations.

While there is some time in May you find it helpful to avoid last minute rush because you have so many other things on your mind as well. Here is a chronology of basic just use as a guide to planning your Invites:
9 months - 1 year

* If you plan to make the date post cards for customers to begin the search for your choice of design as well.
7 to 8 months
* If you put the dates of shipment, place your order based on the number of people who will be sending, as they are optional.
* Review the sample wedding invites verses and think about how your text will be read.
* If sending save the dates, prepare and send.
* Choose your wedding invitation to design and collect all the information that will be printed on them such as date, time, name and address of the location (s), etc.
* Determine Invites envelopes or extras will be ordered - reception cards, response cards, pre-printed return address on envelopes, direction / map cards, decorative envelope seals, lining color inside the envelopes, cards of thanks correspondence or informal notes, some of these options May not be available depending on your chosen style. May you also be able to control the menu, the table and put the cards in your design. The more points you can order at the same time, the more you will save by avoiding the shipping costs separately later.
* If you have the answer, including maps, check with your dinner instead of seeing how far they need to advance your final guest count that you can select the date RSPV to be printed on them (usually 2 -3 weeks before the wedding). You also need to decide whose address is printed on the envelope of the response or a postcard they receive the answers.
4-5 months
