Default How late is too late to send announcements?

So here's the dilemma, I sent STDs to everyone who would have gotten an invitation if we were doing a traditional wedding but then I only sent invites to people who were coming to the wedding and a few old people I knew would be offended if they didn't get an invite. My plan was to send announcements out when we got back (way back in April) but i'm the master procrastinator and I never did it. By the time I got our pics I was kinda over it. So is it too late?

How funny is it that we are in the same boat! You know we got our pics around the same time and would you believe that I am just sending stuff out?? So with that being said, I don't think its too late at all. But then again, coming from a fellow procrastinator, maybe I'm wrong! LOL

What about doing a nice holiday card in 3 months with a great wedding pic on it?

I thought about that but then I thought people might really think "why didn't i get an invite?" But at this rate it might be the holidays before I get around to it anyway!
