Are you looking for creative ways to let your guests know about your upcoming wedding? Save-the-date cards are the best way to let everyone know. If you are planning a destination wedding, or a multi-day extravaganza, it is best to give wedding guests ample time to prepare. If you are expecting a lot of out of town guests, who may need to book airline flights, you really need to let them know. Traditionally invitations go out 8 weeks prior to the wedding, but save-the-date cards should go out at least 6 months prior. Longer for more elaborate destinations, so guests can plan vacation time, travel and budget for the expense.
There are tons of cute and creative ways to send out your save-the-date information. No need to be as formal as your wedding invitation (unless you want to be!), save-the-date's are a great way to inject your personality into the wedding. They are also a great way to get guests excited about your upcoming big day! Another bonus is that people who know ahead of time that they can not attend, will usually contact you, saving you some money on your formal invites!
These "message in the bottle" save-the-dates would be perfect for a beach themed wedding or destination wedding. Add a little sand and a sea shell or umbrella to a plastic bottle and send them off!
How about vintage handkerchiefs? These save-the-dates do double duty...they inform the guests and make a nice keepsake that they can use to dry their happy tears at your wedding! Collect vintage handkerchiefs at antique stores or flea markets, or order new, then have them screen printed or embroidered with all your information!
These amazing cookies are from www.Beau-Coup.com (my new favorite site for all things personalized!). What a yummy way to get guests ready for your wedding. Who would not love to get a save-the-date that is pretty and a yummy treat all in one?
So, with a little creativity you can set the stage for your big event and give guests plenty of time to plan for your big day. Save-the-dates are a fun and polite way to give a little heads up on your wedding day! Need more ideas? We are always here to help, call or stop by today!
