When to Send Save The Date cards

Give your guest ample time to prepare for your big day. They might have to adjust their schedule to fit your big day in. Perhaps if it is a destination wedding or local affair your guest would feel appreciated if they know months before the big day.

• For destination weddings, 6-12 months in advance to the wedding date is best to order, design and send out save the date cards
• Local wedding invites can be sent out 4-6 months prior to the wedding
• If time is short send out your cards immediately

What to Include on a Save The Date Card

When preparing the save the date cards there is a few information that should be stated correctly and not be left out on the cards. Here is the key information that should be included:

• The specific date of the wedding
• Location – complete address of where the event will be held
• Name of the couple – full name or first names

Save the date is only the start to the wedding planning. Consider making your decor pop by including paper wedding coasters. They can be used to serve under water, wine and other beverages. Keep your wedding classy with style while reminding your guest whose big day it is. Paper wedding coasters can be fully customized from your best wedding picture to your choice of monogram.

Remember to follow up your save the date cards with the official wedding invitations approximately 8 weeks before the wedding day.
