SAVE THE DATE!
So you’re getting married and you want your friends and family to come, right? Well, they have to know 1) that they’re invited and 2) when it is! This is where a save-the-date (STD) comes in.

When do you send them? As soon as possible! I have a friend who didn’t send out an STD until a couple months before the wedding – which made it really difficult for her friends and family to plan to be there.
Here are a few ideas for STDs – because it really doesn’t matter HOW it comes, so long as it comes!
- EMAIL. It’s easy. It’s quick.
- Magnet. From just the information to one with a photo and information. Here is a DIY Lego STD Magnet!
- A video! This one was particularly creative!
- A postcard! You can include a photo of you on the front.
- A real card. With a photo, with information, with whatever you want!
Do you have creative ideas for STDs? Let us know!

Nice post. Thank you for the info. Keep it up.
Thanks for the link! I hope the STD postcard idea helps someone else. I had a little too much fun designing it. =)
