We've always done them 2-6 weeks before the wedding. Allows for the hard drinking to wear off.
I stayed up drinking after my rehearsal dinner until about 8 the morning of the wedding (I owe a buddy big time for taking away the bottle of crown and dragging me out of the hot tub at 6:30am). I didn't really feel like drinking at the reception or the after party we hosted. Wish I'd stopped at a normal time the night before.
