@TinyTina: I sent them to everyone that will be receiving an invite. I sent both STDs and invite's to parents and wedding party. Most will want them as a reminder and especially parents, as a keepsake.
I sent them to everyone who will get an invite. Mine were postcards so I didn't put "and guest" for these but will do so on the invitations.
I sent them to everyone that would get a formal invite. So even if your cousin lives with his parents, I would send one to him, and one to them. Parents and bridal party also got one. I know my parents and a couple of my bridesmaids would want one for a keepsake.
I sent them to close friends and fam only, I didnt specify and guest or not-- no one asked either.
oh! I did send one to my parents...they didn't know what they looked like, but I thought they would enjoy getting one. Obviously, not because they NEEDED one, but just because I think they should have one. I wanted them to see the nice little touches that I put on them...I also kept one for myself! :)
Okay thanks all... Sorry I posted this question and then never came back and looked at the responses!! So parents get them, wedding party gets them, basically everyone getting an invite gets one. GOT IT!!
And I guess the consensus is I don't have specify "and guest" on the STD, right??
BE CAREFUL!!! Only send them to people you are ABSOLUTELY 100% sure you want to invite. We sent ours out to everyone about 9 months before the wedding, and when it came down to sending ivites, we realized our budget wasn't going to cover the amount of people we wanted to invite. We also realized there were some people we didn't really want to invite after all. BUT, we already sent them Save The Dates so we were stuck. I definitely recommend weeding through your list mulitiple times and only sending them to definites. Just my two cents :)

@PollyPlanner: Haha oh yea, we've been reviewing our guests list for like 6 months now. Honestly, it's almost entirely family so it's pretty set in stone. Thanks!!
I just sent them to everyone that would later be getting an invitation. Even parents and bridal party.

I'm not sending them out for a while yet, but I'm wondering if I ordered enough....
Are you sending them to your wedding party?
Our parents already know what they look like, should I send one to our parents?
What about multi-family households? (I have many examples of this... i.e. adult cousin lives with his parents. He will get his own invite and guest, and his parents will get a separate invite... but can I send 1 STD or should they each get their own?)
If a guest is single and I'm inviting them with a guest do I specify that on the STD envelope or let them sweat it out til they get their invite? ;)
TIA....
