Super Late Save the Dates

I've been on the ball with everything for this wedding. Ahead of the game, way too early at times, but never really late. Until my Save the Dates.

I kept putting off designing them (and they weren't even intricate) and when I FINALLY decided on what I wanted and chose where to get them printed, I realized that they will get here with less then 6 months to go. Then I still have to account for addressing and the time it takes to deliver them.

Is it super late that my save the dates will get to everyone with only about 5 months until the wedding? Most of the guests that will have to travel to be at the wedding have the date, so I don't think that it should be an issue.

I hate being improper, but the time just got away from me. I definitely have learned my lesson and will be doing all things paper as early as I can before the wedding from this point forward.

From most of my wedding planning lists that I've accumulated during our engagement, they say to send them out around the six month mark. When did you all send out your save the dates?
