Preferably, wedding gifts should be given just before or just after the ceremony. If you cannot attend the wedding, it's always best to err on the side of caution and send the gift by post (and insure it if it's valuable!) so that it arrives at least two days before the wedding is to take place. However, don't send a gift right after you receive an invitation -- just in case the wedding is postponed, or even cancelled.
If you will be attending the wedding, on most occasions there will be a reception table where you can place the gift.
Contrary to some beliefs, it's not polite to wait up to a year after the wedding to get the couple a gift. At best, if you're not able to give your wedding gift before or during the wedding, try not to wait more than three months after the ceremony to give the new couple your heartfelt present.

For example if your wedding is during the holidays, people may need to juggle their schedules. If long-distance travel will be required for some guests, thenit wopuld be polite to allow several months to arrange for affordable tickets.
