Save the dates

Well i never heard of save the dates until a few years ago. I always thought telling people was the save the date lol. But my wedding is really small so everyone knows. I did make my own through this website for free. I sent those to walmart and had those printed out. But i only did those for the parents as a memory. But the rest, i sent through text and it was no issue. I'm also trying to save so any little bit helps a lot.

Handcrafted but they came out nice. We did them ourselves and printed them on 28lb paper at staples for $46. We printed 2 per sheet, 75 sheets (150 total). My aunt and I cut and pasted them onto linen cardstock that a friend gave me. I bought the envelopes at Hobby lobby with the 40% coupon and paid $19 and bought heart stickers on sale to seal the envelopes for $5. In total we paid $60 for 150 save the dates. It came out to roughly $.40 per Save the Date, which is about $.40 cheaper than any place I looked including the envelopes and they are one of kind and came out really nice.

I see your wedding is on a Sunday so I definitely would so guests are aware if they need to take time off from work. I also think it depends on how formal your wedding if digital would make sense. If you are having a really laid back wedding digital would be fine, but if not I would send a physical copy. I would also worry if people would actually see a digital copy or even remember they received it because emails or messages are a lot easier to over look than receiving something in the mail.

You could do electronic save the dates to save money

We literally just sent a nice photo of us in the body of an email that said “save the date!” and our wedding date/location. 100% free, and everyone was informed about the date!

If any of your guests will be traveling, you should send a save the date. Everyone in my family and all of my friends will be traveling from way out of state, so we have sent a save the date as a courtesy to start saving and planning their travels.

Also, who wouldn't want to have their picture up on everyone's fridge?!

We did magnets from Vistaprint for a pretty reasonable price. We decided to send these out because we have a lot of family coming from out of state and out of town so they would have enough time to plan.

We did digit save the dates through Evite and loved it!
