Save the Dates: Send them or Forget em'??
I don't know about you but I had no idea how soon these save the dates needed to be sent out. Further, there are endless amounts of styles to pick from; monogrammed, with picture, with multiple pictures, postcard, magnet, etc. Through out this entire planning process, I feel like everything has been so fun except for the small task of picking our save the dates. I guess the one good thing is it helps you gather peoples addresses early. And the good news from that is I found this great little website, www.postable.com that I recommend to all you lovely brides! But back to the original questions.. send them or not? I've spoken to many brides about this and I've heard mixed reviews. Some brides said they are a must and who doesn't want to send out their best engagement photo to friends and family. Some brides had mixed feelings and weren't sure who to send them out to because they had an A, B and sometimes C guest lists. They didn't want any family members or friends to get their feelings hurt. And other brides just didn't want to add another expense to the wedding budget. Personally I'm undecided on what's best. We did send out Save the Dates but only because our wedding is on a Holiday weekend and it will help our out of town guests book hotel rooms and plan accordingly. If it were any other weekend we probably would have just send out invitations a little earlier. All in all, remember it's YOUR wedding and you can do whatever you want to do!
Happy Planning!
Renee Austin Wedding
