When to Send Out Your Save the Dates (And Other Tips from Your Friendly Amarillo Wedding Venue Pros!)
Hey there, lovebirds! 💍It's Ally, and I own one of the most beautiful wedding venues in Amarillo, Texas! Have you heard about it? It's a cute little wedding venue (well, actually the largest wedding venue) in the Amarillo area! We've been around for over 10 years, and love hosting weddings more and more each day! Our busiest wedding season is April-November, but we can host weddings all year round in our spacious indoor barn venue. We've been to a few weddings over the years and have researched all things wedding planning. We are here today to help you plan when to send out save the dates for your wedding in Amarillo!

If you’ve recently said yes to your forever person — congrats! Cue the happy dances, Pinterest boards, and the sudden urge to color-code everything. Planning a wedding is a wild (and wonderful) ride, and one of the first big “to-dos” is getting those save the dates out. 📨
At Cornerstone Ranch Events Center, we’ve been helping couples tie the knot for over 10 years (yes, TEN — we’ve seen more cake toppers and dance moves than we can count). So trust us when we say we know a thing or two about wedding timelines, guest lists, and how to avoid sending your save the dates… well, too late.
So, let’s break it down — in the most fun, least-stressy way possible!
💌 So... When Should You Send Your Save the Dates?
Great question. The answer depends a little on your wedding date and whether it’s a local Amarillo wedding or a dreamy destination bash. But here’s a good rule of thumb:
For local weddings (like right here at Cornerstone Ranch Events Center, your favorite wedding venue in Amarillo 😉):Send save the dates 6 to 8 months before the big day.
For destination weddings or holiday weekends:You’ll want to give guests more time. Aim for 8 to 12 months ahead.
Why? Because Aunt Carol needs to book that plane ticket. And your college friends need time to request off work (and plan their outfits). Give ‘em a heads-up, and you’ll be everyone’s favorite engaged couple.
