Notifying/invitations

View quoted message We had already sent out our invitations as we have out of province and lots of shift workers invited. Unfortunately we never did a wedding website at the beginning. Regardless to whether we do the legal part this summer we still plan to have a ceremony of some kind and the reception next year. We ended up sending out a Facebook post and emailed back those who had RSVP'd. Later we will reprint and send out our save the dates and invitations. Being over a year away I wanted to resend with the correct information as that's a long time away for those to remember or not misplace the previous invitations.

Did you send out your invites? dont send them out yet and then just change your invites for the new date or scratch it out. we have our website so people have been checking there. yes tell them if you get married this year cuz they will be confused why youre not having a ceremony next year

New invitations being made is adding to the budget if your considering this option. The way I had to send invitations to family that lost them was by WhatsApp or other social media apps. It saves on the postage. Invitations needed to be sent out as not done yet, it would make sense to cover up the old date with the new one and the rest of the information stays the same.

The easiest way of updating family and friends is to email, text or message them personally to let them know the new date will be a vow renewal followed by reception. Another way is using word to make a UPDATE CHANGE using to have guests know.

So we haven’t sent out our invites to our whole guest list just immediate family. If we have to postpone then yeah,, personally I’d be resending everyone new invites

Our plan is to tell everyone by text/call/email that we are postponing and that a formal invitation will follow with the new details. We only sent save the dates, but I wish we hadn't so we could quietly change our plans without all the extra work.


We hope to get legally married on our 2020 date, and the invites for 2021 will be to celebrate our first anniversary so people will know that we're already hitched.

I have the same exact questions! Glad I am not the only one!! I thought was I overthinking
