While other parts of Texas have Fire Ant, Chigger and Mosquito Festivals, Luckenbach celebrates Spring's arrival each year by holding a contest to see who witnesses the arrival of the first Mud Dauber Wasp. The choice of this non-aggressive and home-oriented insect reflects Luckenbach's philosophy.
Order and Send Bridal Shower Invitations. These should go out between six and eight weeks before the event, depending on how many out-of-towners are on the list. Make sure guests RSVP to one person (the maid of honor, for example) to keep numbers organized.
Timing the Invitations. It is customary to mail your wedding invitations about eight weeks before your wedding date. If you have already mailed your save-the-date cards, then your wedding guests will be expecting your actual wedding invitations in the mail. The process of choosing your wedding invitations and preparing them to be sent out can be time-consuming so it is important to not procrastinate and allow yourself plenty of time.
