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.
Best Answer: Shower invites only need to go out about 3-4 weeks prior to the event....so early March would be the earliest I would mail them. EDIT: Remember that shower invites are very different than wedding invites. Obviously, for the wedding you want them out early (6-8 weeks), but for a shower, 3-4 weeks is plenty! Also, I have never heard of save-the-dates for a shower as someone else mentioned.
