When do I send out Invites?

I swear I've seen everything from 6 weeks to three months ahead of time on this website alone. So what's the appropriate timeline?

We sent ours between the 6-7 week mark, and then RSVPs were due two weeks before.

Our wedding is March 20th and we sent ours out at the begining of January-because our wedding is right around Spring Break. We made the RSVPs due Feb. 12th to allow us time to call people who didn't respond.

I always like receiving an invite 2-3 months before the date. It gives me time to make sure that I can make all my arrangements. However, if you sent out STDs with details about hotels/location, you can wait till 6-7 weeks before. It also depends on how close to the date you want to be calling people who haven't sent back their RSVPs

6-8 weeks before the wedding, with RSVPs requested 2 to 4 weeks before the wedding.

6-8 weeks.  Any earlier and people won't be able to commit and will thus forget to RSVP; any later and you're not going to have enough time to get responses back, and people might not be able to come on short notice.
