When to Send Out Baby Shower Invitations?
In general, Baby Shower Invitations should go out as follows:
We recommend that All Baby Shower Invitations be sent at the same time 4 weeks in advance.
However, we found references that also suggested:
Out-of-Town Guests
Send Baby Shower Invitations to Out of Town Guests: 4 – 5 weeks in advance is the norm.
*If the out of town guests, must fly and book hotel rooms then 5 – 6 weeks notice is very helpful.
Local Friends and Family: 3 weeks in advance
RSVP Date should be 1.5 to 2 weeks prior to the Baby Shower
If you have emails for the guests, I recommend sending final email RSVP reminder the Monday after RSVP date was set. This should be a pleasant reminder and allow you to get the final count as to who will be attending.
