I like about 10 days. . .just before, the weekend before, the party. It gives people a weekend to shop and like others have said. . .too far out and people forget. I feel pretty bad. . .my daughter missed a birthday party last weekend. It seems like we got the invitation a long time ago and my daughter was spending the night at Grandma's . . .I just forgot. She didn't remember either and I haven't told her yet. . .woops!
