Photo Save The Date Magnets and Cards Give A Personal Feel To Your Big Day
 |
Save the date cards are a relatively new tradition when it comes to wedding planning and wedding stationary. This is a unique and personal way of alerting your guests to the fact that you are planning your special day and making sure that they do not book anything on your chosen date. Photo save the date cards are a nice way to add an extra personal touch to your special day.
The general idea is to send out save the dates if you have chosen your wedding date but have not yet confirmed all the details. For instance if you have not finalized your wedding venue then you can alert people to the fact that they will be invited to your wedding but you will get back to them with all the final details.
The save the date cards are important for guests who may need to travel for your wedding. If you are planning a destination wedding then people will need to make the necessary arrangements. Guests will need to book time off work and also book travel and accommodation.
You will generally mail the cards to everyone on your guest list or one per invited household. Remember that if you are still I the process of finalizing your guest list, that it is essential that people who receive save the dates must also receive a wedding invite. If you are not certain of who you want to invite then rather only send the photo save the date cards to close family and friends that you know will be on your final guest list.
The supplier who is designing and printing your save the date magnets or cards will more than likely be able to do your wedding invitations, this way you can ensure that they will fit in with your color scheme and design style. However, save the dates do not need to match your wedding invitation style.
Even though you do not need to stick to the same color scheme etc for your save the dates and wedding invitations, the save the date cards allow you to be a little less formal and more fun. A photo save the date is a nice way of adding an extra personal touch and they do not need to be as formal as your invitations.
The most important things to include on these cards is the full names of you and your partner. Then let your guests know the date of your wedding and the general region. If there is travel involved then include details of that which may help your guests plan. Make sure that they know that these are just save the date cards and that invitations with all the details will follow in due time – “Invitation to follow” is a common text line.
While save the date magnets or more specifically photo save the date magnets are not compulsory or standard wedding etiquette, it is a nice way to get your friends and family excited for your big day. By adding a photograph, the refrigerator magnet will also turn your save the date into something that your guests can keep as a reminder of your special day.
