TIP TUESDAY: Who mails the wedding invitations?

“Tradition” says that wedding invitations are mailed by the person(s) that are hosting the wedding.  So for a “traditional” wedding, it would be the parents of the bride.  In addition, those mailing the invitations are usually also the people receiving the RSVPs.
