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.
You can have a shower up to 6 months before the wedding. If many guests are traveling from out of town, it may make sense to have it close to the wedding, so they can attend. Otherwise, 1 â 3 months before the wedding is ideal because it adds to the anticipation, without adding to a brideâs last minute stress.
