We have provided you with answers from leading experts in the Bridal Etiquette field.

Q. When should wedding invitations be ordered?

A. Invitations should be ordered when the details of the ceremony and reception have been confirmed. Information such as the date, time and place of your service and reception, as well as an accurate guest list count are needed when placing your invitation order. You should order invitations at least three months before the wedding.

Q. When should wedding invitations be mailed?

A. Invitations should be mailed approximately 4 to 8 weeks before the ceremony.

Q. Should I send out Save the Date cards and if so, when?

A. It is a good idea to send a "Save-the-Date" to your out-of-town guests. This card is usually sent four to six months before the wedding. This is the first news your guests have of the wedding and will help them make travel arrangements.

Q. Are the invitation envelopes addressed formally?

A. Yes. Abbreviations should not be used except for Mr., Mrs., Jr., or Dr.

Q. Is it correct to use "and family" when addressing the invitation envelopes?

A. No. Separate invitations should be sent to each adult family member living in the same home, whenever possible. For small children, address the outer envelope to their parents and write their first names on the inner envelope under their parent's names.

Q. When should thank you notes be mailed?

A. A written thank you note should be sent as soon as possible after receiving the gift, normally within two or three weeks of receipt.

Q. Is there a tactful way to thank someone for a monetary gift?

A. When writing a thank you note for money, it is not necessary or advisable to mention the amount. Instead, refer to it as "your generous gift," or something similar; mention how you plan to use the money, whether to purchase an appliance or to use in some other way.
