Frequently Asked Questions

What goes on a save-the-date card?

Include your names, wedding date and location, and tell guests that a formal invitation will follow. Give travelers early notice and add your wedding website if it will help them plan.

Do I need to send save-the-date cards?

They are optional, but early notice helps guests plan travel and makes it easier to organize your guest list before formal invitations go out.

When should I send a save-the-date?

About six months ahead is common. Give guests another month or two for a destination wedding or holiday weekend.

Should I ask for replies on a save-the-date?

Save the RSVP request for your formal invitation, when guests have firmer plans. Use this first card to share the date and location.

Must the save-the-date match my wedding theme?

Matching is optional. Keep your wedding colors for consistency or choose a separate photo or design that you enjoy.

How should I plan printing and delivery?

We offer fast turnaround. Allow time for artwork, proof approval, printing and shipping, and ask us to confirm the available production and delivery options for your stock, quantity and destination. Ask about rush printing and expedited shipping when planning a time-sensitive event. Holiday demand can affect availability.

Save the Date Cards Made Personal

Help guests plan ahead with a save-the-date card. Choose a favorite photo, a nautical motif or a floral design, then coordinate the later invitation if you want a shared look.

Paper, Size and Finishing Details

Pick your size before laying out the artwork. Compare glossy, uncoated, matte, linen and pearl surfaces; choose an uncoated writing area when you want to add a personal note. Flat postcards also offer layered stocks with colored cores.

Use the gallery as a starting point for your own design. Coordinate cards with separately ordered envelopes and address labels. Upload finished print files through the product order flow, or ask our designers to prepare a proof.
