Are you using the same layout and design for both your STDs and invitations? Or are you switching it up? Are you going for a cohesive stationery look from start or finish, or are you having more fun with your save-the-dates? Mix? Photo by: Captured by Colson Or Match? Photo from EVENTful Moments...

    We’re switching it up! Our save the dates are photo booth style & we won them free! Our invites will be a free trmplate I found on weddingchicks.com that comes w/ thank you card, program, menu & escort card templates as well!

    Makes sense, I'm all for finding the best deals on these! How is the invitation selection at Michael's, haven't checked that out yet!

    We had a lot of fun with our save the dates! We didn't match, because I loved the STDates more than the ones that matched. We had each a baby picture on the outside flap and you opened it to our engagement picture and the inside flaps also had the place and date.

    Mix! A friend is drawing caricatures for our save the dates, so they won't look anything like the invitations!

    Matching to a certain extent. Our friend (and one of my BM's) designed out saves the dates and invites and kept a theme going throughout.

    My save the dates will be very simple. I am opting for a more extravagant invitation.

    If I were doing save the dates, which I most likely won't, I'd probably keep it simple and match them.

    We are not sending save the dates! with a tight budget it just wasn’t a necessity for us. If we were having them i’d definitely want them to match.

    Love that! Are the save the dates going to have pictures at all or just text?

    Definitely a good spot to save money!! Are you going to send the invitations out a little earlier instead?
