I had a birthday party planned where I sent out invitations 3.5 weeks in advance. 2 kids in birthday child’s class had Covid and then my other child got Covid so we had to cancel the party.

I rescheduled the party and sent out another invitation with less than 2 weeks notice and had many more RSVPs. All the original guests RSVPd yes plus ones that had not previously RSVPd.

A month to 6 weeks. Then multiple reminders. I use Evite, but reinforce with paper invite and phone calls.

I just sent some out 3 weeks in advance. I was waiting for covid numbers to keep coming down. Plus much more than that and I think people forget.

Pre-covid I did one month. Recently I did two weeks. But I think numbers will be low enough in March that you don't really need to wait and see. I think you can send now if you want.

I just did 4 weeks in advance. The ones that I’ve gotten 2 weeks out, I assume the parents got organized late or my kid was on the B list (which I don’t care about lol).

I appreciate 4 weeks, as our weekends fill up quickly and we are more likely to be free a month in advance vs two weeks, etc.

I just booked a party for late March. My kids seem to have a lot of friends who were born around this time.

When would you send out invitations?

Before Covid, I would send out invitations a month in advance so I would send out now, like a month in advance.

During Covid, any birthday celebration seemed to be shorter notice with smaller guest lists. Everything we have been invited to seems to be 2 weeks max notice with some celebrations planned only days prior to the party.
