About 5-10 extra save the dates sound good to us…
Say if Lara can’t make it, you most likely would want to invite Peter to fill the empty seat.
3. Address the envelopes
You may be getting save the date postcards done so that means you can start collecting all the addresses from your guests now and get them ready for addressing later on.
It will honestly make your life so much easier!
