It gives guests enough notice to request time off work, make travel arrangements, and block the date before anything else claims it. For local or low-travel events, you can stretch toward the 6-month end.<\/p>\n<p>For destination weddings or peak-season dates (holiday weekends, summer Saturdays in popular venues), aim for 9-12 months. If you&#8217;re asking people to book international flights or commit to a multi-night trip, earlier is always better. The same logic applies to weddings during major holidays, when flights and accommodation fill fast.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Once your wording is ready, the next step is finding cards that do it justice.
