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.
Make sure also to ask your caterer when they'll need final head counts. Typically, you should ask for an RSVP date 3 weeks before your wedding, if you sent them on time. At a minimum, send them out six weeks in advance, and set an RSVP date of 2 weeks before the wedding.or a destination wedding, it's typical to send out a save the date about six months before, which will give your guests time to budget and hunt for travel deals.
