or others still? please give me a distinction, if for you there is any, between writing a business email or texting one of your friends, thank you very much.

It does also depend on the full sentence in which they are being used sometimes but the two below are the most natural to use:
+ The meeting is on "September the 3rd"
+ The meeting is on "THE 3rd of September" --> please note you need to add "the" to make it natural.
The other ones you wrote (3 September / 3 of September / 3 Sep) are not natural here or ever.
Here are a couple of other possible alternative, again depending on context though:
+ The meeting is on "September 3"
+ The meeting is on "03/09/19" --> Global date format
+ The meeting is on "09/03/19" --> American date format
