Save-the-Dates are tools that couples use to relay important details about their weddings to intended guests, typically when the wedding will be out-of-town or during a holiday weekend. Some of that information includes the date of the wedding, the location, local hotels and airports, with mention that formal invitations will follow. While both present the opportunity to give guests a feel for the style of a wedding, save-the-dates are far less formal than invitations. So have fun with them!
Creative and unexpected Save-the-Dates are the perfect way to excite wedding guests about attending a celebration long before they receive an invitation! The beauty of save-the-dates is that they don't have to match the wedding theme to a tee! For example, a beach wedding save-the-date could be literal and sent as a message in a bottle complete with sand, seashells and starfish. Or you could send a standard "We're Tying the Knot" insert! Almost any item that is sold at Big Lots, Staples or even a fabric store can be turned into a creative and unexpected save-the-date.
