Crystal1880, Yes, I'm sending out my save-the-dates in early December. I'm doing this because it's before the holidays and before Income Tax season. Even though we still have another holiday and income tax season before our wedding, this will give our guests the chance to save even more. Invitations will be going out next November which will be six months before our wedding so that'll be another reminder before the holiday and income season of 10/11. I hope this helps!
