Nice work @imnotrafa! I really like how you implemented the algorithm within this function-it's logical and easy to follow. Left a few comments, let me know if you have any questions!

Let's rename this file to send-event-reminder to stay consistent with the naming pattern of the other files in this directory

As part of this PR, let's also create the template for the email-specifically event-reminder.tsx which can be placed in packages/email-templates/emails/application-created.tsx. Don't worry too much about all the wording details, but do try to have a general structure similar to the other emails in the emails directory.
This will also requiring adding the reference to the new email template in the right places throughout packages/core/src/modules/notification/use-cases/send-email.ts.

We might face an issue here. Since we're sending so many emails, we'll need to make sure we adhere to any email rate limits imposed by Postmark (which is what we use to send emails). Doing some research gives more precise limits.
However, the logic for sending email batches adhering to rate limits should be done as a worker separate from this function, so we can have this done as part of a separate issue. No worries if you don't want to take this on right now.
I'll also tag @ramiAbdou in case he has any more feedback regarding this
