Hand them out. Personally, Ive perceived it nicer and really cool when people invite me personally and hand me an invitation to the event, than just mailing me something. This is ofcourse if the person lives close. If it's in another state, mail will work better, with a phone call first.

Mailing them would be ideal but because of the late date, handing them out would be okay. But, rather than passing them out during the daily meeting, it would be better to approach them individually and give them their invitation. Doing it during a mass meeting can make it seem a bit impersonal and it also gives the impression that they were an after thought. If you do it one on one it at least gives them the illusion that you really wanted them there and took the time to personally invite them. It is just a nice touch. Congratulations on your pending wedding and good luck to you!

I think there is absolutely nothing wrong with handing them out. Saves on postage! Besides, saves face in why it took you so long to get them out. Instead of saying "We found room for you!", you can try "I tried looking up your addresses to make a more formal delivery, but i came up short.. so... here!"

personally - I feel that there should only be 1 list - reallistically ; how important are people on a **B List** to the couple.this is not a criticism of you personally as I have seen other questions here re the same thing. if you had REALLY wanted them to attend they would have been allowed for in the original mailing.

Everything About Your Wedding Wedding Marketplace Buy and sale all wedding related products. Where and How to Start? There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky! Wedding Invitation Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you. Wedding Attire Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire. Wedding Flowers Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost. Wedding Ceremony Decoration Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority... Wedding Music Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances. Wedding Photography Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day. Wedding Favors Some brides don’t like the idea of giving gifts to her guests, but we think it’s a nice gesture as a thank you... Wedding Food Wedding food can take a huge chunk out of your wedding budget. Wedding Cake Your wedding cake is the centerpiece of the reception. It is a scrumptious dessert as well as part of a tradition Wedding Party The question of whether or not to serve alcohol at your wedding is one that can cause dissension in the ranks of family.
