Frequently Asked Questions About Wedding Save the Date Cards

What is the meaning of Save the Date?

A Save the Date is a request for a guest to reserve a specific day in their calendar for your wedding. It is a notice that is sent in advance of a formal wedding invitation or RSVP.

When should I send out Save the Dates?

Save the Dates are typically sent out 6 to 12 months before the wedding to give family and friends enough time to clear their schedules.

How should I address Save the Dates?

Save the Dates should be addressed to either the family, the individual person invited, or the full couples name that is invited. Save the Dates should be addressed the same way your wedding invitations will be addressed to avoid confusion about who is invited or not.

What is the difference between a Wedding Save the Date vs. Invitation?

A Save the Date is an official notice of your wedding day and location and is sent with the intention that guests set aside that date in their calendar. A wedding invitation is the formal request that a guest attend your wedding and it requires an official response or RSVP.

Do you put RSVP on Save the Dates?

No, RSVP’s are not added to wedding save the dates as save the dates are sent out primarily as a heads up to guests to clear their schedule. Wedding invitations will be sent out closer to the date for a final head count & RSVP.
