I which case mention to the vital guests you have it booked for popping into calendar and proper invites beginning of Jan

1st bday are you inviting parents or a bunch of 1 year olds?! 3-4 weeks

2nd week of January if you must have a formal party.

But TBF 1st birthday parties are nice as a small affair at home (either just immediate family or have a separate one for mums and babies). Many babies can’t walk by 1 or if they can they can only just toddle so they aren’t going to get much from it and maybe over stimulated and over tired.

Early to mid Jan is fine. Unless you have important invitees like Grandparents who don’t live nearby and would need to sort travel at which point tell them now. But for everyone else around the second week of Jan is fine and plenty of notice.

@LimoncelloSpritzplease thanks it is at home. We are hiring a ball pit and inviting family and a few mums with babies. No pressure and super relaxed 2hrs to celebrate :)
