My rule of thumb is 3-4 weeks prior but absolutely not before 4 weeks. I like it close but not last minute so people are aware it’s coming but won’t forget about it.

You think with it being summer and people planning vacations it shouldn’t be earlier in advance?

Should be at least a month and it's ok to send out reminder texts I did that all I did was copy and paste and sent the same message to those invited except the one u know will be there for sure

I already sent mine out but it’s because my husband isn’t from this area so his family needs time to plan to see if they can make it. (One of his aunts is trying to get a hotel room with his uncles so they don’t have to do the long drive back home the same day)

A month max. As gets forgotten. I did ours 2weeks in advance. I do put rsvp by a date otherwise we assume they not coming and don't supply party bags for them. If they turn up anyway like some do then that's the child's parents fault. X

Definitely a good thing to consider. However, I believe people that go on vacation(s) during the summer know well in advance when they’re going. Like I knew from January that I’d be going on vaca July 24-28

Mine LOs first bday is June 25 and I started this week end but said on it by June 18 everyone needs to rsvp

With it being summer I’d do at least a month probably 6 weeks ish!

I did a month in advance for my daughters friends at school cause her birthday is during the summer and she wanted her friends from school to come.

I did 6 weeks to make sure people had enough time for planning their summer activities.

4-5 weeks or if you know someone who plans way in advance, let them know sooner, or if people go on vacations in the summer.

3 weeks

Didn’t realize I posted this in the polls chat. Sorry!

My rule is a month prior

I am already planning and made an event for my sons birthday in October as people gotta travel :)

4w

2 months before, I sent out a save the date and asked for rsvps by the beginning of the 1 month to her birthday. Then sent out the main one with details only to those who rsvpd. Many still rsvpd late lol and some who didn't still showed up! Ugh, luckily we had enough food and drinks.

30 days is good
