I was told by all the ladies that have planed weddings that It is best to send them out 6-8 weeks before the wedding. Which is what I am doing. They said to do this cuz so many people will misplace them if you send them too early or will forget.

6-8 weeks is what I always heard. I did 8 weeks, because many of my invite were to OOT family. I wanted to give them time to plan for the trip.

I'm going to send them out about 8 weeks before. I figure if I send them any sooner noone will know what their shifts are so won't know yet if they can come.
So 8 weeks before would make it the 10th of March for me or the 11th of March for you...

Six to eight weeks is the generally accepted time frame. If many guests will come from out of town and need to plan, then a save the date card sent 6 to 9 months before the wedding will cover their needs.
