If you're planning a wedding out-of-town, don't forget to send save-the-date cards to your guests. These should go out six months to a year before the big day. That's well in advance of the invitation, which for a destination wedding should go out at least eight weeks prior.
What's a save-the-date? It's simply a card or note that literally requests that people hold a particular date open on their calendar so they don't schedule anything else in the meantime for that date.
The importance of save-the-dates for destination weddings is obvious. Guests will have to travel to your wedding. So they'll have to take more time out of their schedule (and more money out of their budgets) than if the wedding were close by. Your guests will need extra time to plan.
