Calling all November 2009 Brides!

Thanks Jess! Good idea, I'll take a look.

Welcome new November Brides and Congrats!!

Welcome newbies!

 

I woke up last night at 4:30 in a panic because I feel like I'm running behind on all my wedding planning. I have the dress, I did STDs, I have a website...i'm working with my WC on reception/ceremony details. But i'm very stressed about invitations. I don't want to pull the trigger too early and have people forget, but I don't want to wait too long.

 

I was going to send out at end of June and ask for RSVPs by mid-August. Am I off?

 

What are you all doing? I know there are other threads specifically about this, but I'd like to hear what the Nov '09 brides are doing as everyone seems to have a different take on what is best.

 

Thanks!

haha ditto Megan on the swine flu thing

I'm with MegaShay, I'm sending them out (hopefully) at the beginning of June with a September 1 RSVP deadline. That still leaves some room for the slow pokes before I have to have my final numbers in.

 

On a different note, I got my TTD dress today! I bought it from a fellow BDW bride, milejilo. It's great!

 

Time is flying! When we got engaged in January, it felt like forever until November! Now, it's just over 6 months!!!

I'm also sending out my invites in June 1 w/RSVP Sept. 1. But I still don't have a dress! Megashay, good thinking about the swine flu

I am doing the exact same... with the RSVP as 09-01! We must think alike!

And make sure you guys check out Jess' invites, they are rockin! http://bestdestinationwedding.com/forum/t42484

Hmmm, I might be off because I was going to send in June with Oct 9th RSVP??

 

Maybe I should move the RSVP date up??

I did Sept 1 because I want to be able to plan (and I know I will have the stragglers anyway).... also, I don't want them to lose the invite and RSVP if I give them a lot of time I have some winners, haha....

Yes, I think I would now be more confortable with Sept 15th, but I did read that the etiquette for more traditional weddings in one month.
