Fancy Font: Sending a save the date doesn’t mean you have to include a photo if you need to mail out before you get your engagement photos or have trouble picking just one from your engagement shoot. Make it fun with a fancy font or a design that reflects your wedding style. A simple save the date can be extremely beautiful.
Classic Calendar: The most important detail of a save the date is… well, the date. Creating a mini calendar with your wedding date circled is a fool-proof way to let your guests know when your big day will be. It will also help them visualize what day of the week it is and will remind them to mark their own personal calendars so they don’t forget!
Magnificent Magnet: By sending your guests a save the date magnet they are sure to be reminded of your wedding date every time they open their fridge to grab their favorite snack. It’s a great way to send a save the date that doesn’t get lost in a stack of mail. Plus, magnets are a great keepsake for your relatives and close friends!
Pretty Postcard: If you’re a wanderlust couple or having a destination wedding then a postcard save the date is perfect. The cute style will let all your guests know the date of the wedding and that you travel bugs hope they can make it. Bonus – postage for postcards is cheaper than mailing an envelope! It’s just a few cents per card, but every cent counts when it comes to your wedding budget!
