red wedding dress_When to Send Bridal Shower Invitations?_pink bridesmaid dresses
As a general rule, mail bridal shower invitations four weeks in advance of the event. There are a few exceptions, however.
In order to best select a time, assess the guest list for the shower. Will there be many guests coming in from out of town who therefore will need to make travel arrangements? If so, the invitations should be sent out at least six weeks in advance for guests to arrange travel.
If the shower is held in a facility that can accommodate extra guests, the invitation can be mailed out at the recommended four weeks. However, if the location is one that requires a definitive head count, a longer period to obtain RSVPs (red wedding dress) is necessary. If a head count is required one to two weeks in advance, you may wish to mail the invitations five to six weeks prior to the event (red wedding dress)
This will give your guests time to read and respond to the invitation and proper follow-up time for the party thrower to contact any guests who have not responded.
If the guest list is small or guests are nearby, it may be acceptable to mail invitations later than usual. However, the invitations should not be mailed any later than three weeks prior to the date to give your guests sufficient time to plan and respond.
Additionally, the ideal RSVP time should be (pink bridesmaid dresses) two to two and a half weeks. Provide the method of contact in which you can most easily be reached or have time to record information. This can include a mailed response card, email address or phone (pink bridesmaid dresses)
