Save The Date Cards

What Information should be printed on a Save the Date?

Your Save the Dates will not include RSVP information or details of the ceremony, but will provide your guests with the basics they need to make their plans.

Basic Info

Name of the bride and groom
Date of the event
City or town and state

Additional Info (optional)

Your wedding web site (if you have one)
Airlines and Airport info
Car rental
Hotels
Local attractions
Weekend itinerary (if you have one)

A line placed at the bottom of the card should read "Invitation to follow," or something of that nature. (Save the Date cards are a fairly recent trend and this will help your guests from confusing this card with your actual invitation.)

What are some creative ways to send Save the Dates?

If you wish, your Save the Date cards may match your invitations in style, paper, and theme. You might, in fact, choose a smaller size of your invitation or a very simple version of your invitation to use as your Save the Date. In these circumstances, it's wise to use the same printer for both pieces to maintain consistency and style.

Save the date cards are not meant to be formal, however, so get creative if you want! You might wish to take this opportunity to send a fun, personal message to your guests. Here are some fun concepts to spur your imagination:

Start by browsing collections of Save the Dates. With a wide variety of colors, themes, and styles, there is sure to be something that fits your unique style and concept.

Generate excitement for your destination wedding with a Save the Dates specific to your wedding location.

You might want to include a picture of you and your fiancé, or a represent yourselves in a fun way with an illustrated couple.

Use your flowers as your inspiration! A Save the Date including your wedding flower gives a sweet hint of what your wedding day will be.
