Notifying your guests well in advance will give them time to make travel arrangements and plan for the trip. Here’s a timeline for sending out save the dates for a destination wedding:
Six to Eight Months Before: If you are planning a destination wedding, it’s best to send out your save the dates six to eight months before your big day. This gives your guests plenty of time to book flights, make hotel reservations and plan accordingly.
Four Months Before: It’s a good idea to send out reminders or follow-up emails four months before the wedding date. This will ensure that all of your guests have made their travel arrangements and are ready for the big day.
One Month Before: One month before the wedding is when you should send out final reminders about travel arrangements and any changes that may have occurred. You’ll also want to make sure that everyone has their passport ready if necessary.

This gives your guests plenty of time to plan for their trip and make any necessary travel arrangements. Final reminders should be sent out one month before the wedding date, just to make sure everyone is prepared for the big day!
