    Hi Bees,

     

    I was wondering how much time from the day I send out the invites should I give guests to RSVP back? I was thinking of having invites out by Aug 21st and have an RSVP back day of Sept 23rd. I feel that's ample time as I want to know a month in advance my final head count. What do you guys think?

    Thanks!

    That sounds about right to me. My invites went out today (8/3) and the RSVP date is 9/7. The venue needs a final count one week before, so that gives 3 weeks to track people down and finalize everything (which I've heard can be a real pain and may actually take all three weeks, but my guests will be good and RSVP on time, right?).
