Make your Save the Date Cards Special

Many years ago, weddings tended to follow a set format: wedding invitations would be sent out to notify friends and family of your wedding and they would all be standard invites with very little personalisation.  That’s all changed nowadays with couples wanting a wedding that celebrates who they are and what is important to them.  More importantly, we have discovered how vital it is that people have advance warning of the big date and save the date cards are often a couple’s first port of call when it comes to thinking about their wedding stationery.

When thinking about your save the date cards, try to think creatively and give your guests something wonderful to open and inform them that you are about to be married.  Maybe even include a gift with your save the date card – a small novelty gift or something edible will make your guest feel special for very little cost.  If you have a large wedding in mind, you might want to do these special save the date cards for a select number in your wedding party to keep costs down.

Within your save the date cards, include details of a website or blog which you have set up to keep your guests informed of your wedding plans along the way – this is a great way to make everyone feel involved in your wedding and is a real talking point when everybody gets together on the actual day.

Embellish your save the date cards with a design of your own – maybe add a particular symbol or signature to each card to give it a real personal touch.  Include a photograph of you and your partner – or even of you and the particular guest that you are sending the save the date card to.

Whatever you decide to do for your save the date cards, we are sure they’ll look amazing and give you a very special reminder of your wedding day in the years to come.
