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.
Usually it's 6 months before your wedding, that way out of town guests have enough time to make travel arrangements. Six to twelve months before your wedding is the norm for sending Save the Dates. However, some are sent as close as 3-4 months prior to the wedding.
