Postponing Invites?

I would mail them out in late may since everyone already has a save the date!

I would also wait. It might mean a shorter timeline for people to RSVP, but it will reduce the stress of needing to contact everyone if you do need to postpone or is you need to reduce the guest list to follow any government guidelines on gatherings.


We weren't planning on sending save the dates and now I'm kicking myself because I will need to speak to each of those guests if we need to postpone! Oh well, it's not like anyone saw this year coming.

Hi there, wondered if there is an option to send invites from this site if I find I am not able to through regular mail ? Not sure if receiving mail is an okay thing to do right now so was thinking I might take a pic of my invite and send that out electronically if need be. It's recommended to deal with mail / packages cautiously so may just do it electronically to save people undue stress. My wedding is Aug 29th and am hoping we can still go forward with our original date so have to start thinking about when I will send the invites as we didn't do save the date notices.

Thanks :-)

Hello Bryana,

Im September 17th and in the same scenario as you.

I decided to wait a bit before I send them out. Basically everyone knows the date of the wedding and has access to our wedding website.

I would wait a bit if you've sent out save the dates, especially if the majority of your guests are from out of province.

I have a similar question! Wedding is planned for beginning of July so we should be sending invitations any day. We’ve already sent save the dates. We have a Plan B date picked and are waiting longer to make a decision. So do we go ahead and send out invites for our original date and update people later, or hold off for now?

Thank you!!

I would wait then, it's not like they are going to go ahead and book rooms or flights right now during the pandemic right? Assuming everything has passed and we've recovered in time for the wedding I would say to wait till maybe May 15th on the later end?

Hey! So my wedding date is September 4, and my RSVP is July 4. I was planning on sending my invites out beginning of May. I think things will be quite a bit calmer by then! That gives everyone roughly two months to RSVP. I hope this helps!
