My wedding is 10/11/12, My STD's are ordered and should be here in a week or 2. I will be sending them out right away. I will be sending a formal invitation 4-5 months before the wedding. I was amazed that our TA prints them for us no charge!! Our TA's info and our website info are on the STD's We are also having a at home reception, and the date for the AHR is on the STD too.
