In my social circle, showers are held 1 to 3 months before the wedding. The shower invitations would be sent out about a month before the shower. Wedding invitations are usually sent out 8 to 10 weeks before the wedding. So it is typical for the shower invitations to go out before the wedding invitations.
Typically, it is recommended that you ask for an RSVP date at least three weeks before your wedding, as long as you have sent them on time. At a minimum, send out your wedding invitations six weeks in advance and set an RSVP date of two weeks before the wedding.
