How early to send graduation party invite?

I can't for the life of me remember how early I sent graduation party invites out for my oldest son. My middle son is graduating (YAY!) June 17th and we will be having an open house all afternoon/evening for him. I want to send it out early enough, but not too early. I'm already getting "save the date" type emails for other kids graduation parties, eek! Is 2.5 months too early lol?

I agree with Rebel Yell - you want to be sure folks will be able to come if they really want to. I love that folks do open house long parties for graduations, since many attendees can then fit in two or three parties if they know that many graduates.

In our town it was about a month early, but then everyone knew ahead of time that that was when all the grad parties would take place.  If you're sending it to out-of town guests who don't know about it yet, you can certainly send them a short email telling them about it now, and then send the invites 4-6 weeks early.  We had two out-of-town weddings (basically, all of our children's weddings so far :)), and always emailed -- months earlier --  family and friends who we knew might want to make the big effort to come.
