Save the Date
Save-the-date cards are messages with a brief request asking your out-of-town friends and family to mark your wedding on their calendars. This way, these special people can plan their vacation time, take advantage of good airfares and whatever else needs to be done to make a major trek cross-country or to your destination wedding.
With such cards, you can be as creative or as simple as you like. For example, one bride, whose wedding took place in Mexico, sent a card with the pertinent details inside a sealed, see-through plastic bag, along with sand and a seashell. This clever touch was in keeping with the theme of her wedding.
Another idea would be to have save-the-date magnets made, so that prospective guests will be reminded of the upcoming nuptials on a regular basis. Include the standard who, what, where and when and the earlier you can send them, the better.
Do you have any creative ideas for Save-the-Date cards or magnets?
