Emily Post didn't mention weddings. The recommendation is 6 to 8 weeks. A destination wedding requires 3 months. Many send "save-the-date cards" at 6 to 8 months.I found this list of invitation etiquette on the interwebs, seems like Tesla was spot on!
Emily Post - Invitation Timing: When to Send Out the Invitations
The Walt Disney film "The Happiest Millionaire" not only mentions electric cars, but features an entire subplot around misplaced wedding invitations. I enjoyed these lines from the film about the dilemma of not receiving an invite:
"I'm sure there's some simple explanation. We'll certainly take care of it, Mrs. Duke. These little things happen."
"Little things? How would you feel if the Drexels had not been invited?"
"They'd come anyhow. They're relatives."
