I would start working on them as soon as you get the chance.

I had my shower Sunday and I mailed them this morning, however, I am insane - so - I think a month's time is appropriate.

I sent mine out the week after my shower. I personally just wanted to get them over with and done with.

My friends and I are still waiting for ours from a shower we attended in October. And we gave good gifts bec. her MIL is one of our very close friends. Mine was a full set of her registered stemware, so you don't think I'm talking about a dish towel or something. Even though, that too should be appreciated and acknowleged.

Let's see when the wedding TY's arrive. That was early December!!

I can't tell you what etiquette dictates, but I would say 3-4 weeks at the most, while the groom's side still remembers your unmarried name.

If you care enough to be asking, you will no doubt do the right thing.

Good luck and happy wedding planning.

I would do it as soon as possible. I think I wrote them out within 2 weeks.

As soon as possible. They should def go out before the wedding.

It took me one month and ten days. I know this because I also have a mother who was hounding me about this. This may sound like a long time but I had 85 to write and I wanted to make them as personal as possible. One of FH's aunts refused to respond to our wedding until she got hers. I wish she said no.
