Timing is very important, especially for formal events.
Recommended timelines:
- Weddings: 2–3 months before the event (or more for destination weddings)
- Corporate events: 3–6 weeks in advance
- Fundraisers and galas: 4–8 weeks in advance
- Private parties: 2–4 weeks in advance
This allows time for design, proofing, printing, and mailing—plus RSVPs if needed.
