What is a save the date card?
The Save-The-Date card is simply a
way of giving your guests a heads up about your wedding day,
letting them know in advance that your getting married and the
date you have chosen, so that they can make plans accordingly
before they receive the wedding invitation. They are usually
packed with wedding information such as your colors, your menu,
even a couple of silly planning anecdotes . They can be
sparse and simple. All you really need to include in your letter
is your wedding date, the city and state you'll be married in, and
of course, your names.
We've compiled a few samples for
you below, including formal and informal cards and letters, as
well as offbeat letters we love, written by real brides and
grooms.
