Our Save the Dates are fully customised for you for the perfect finish. We want you to be excited to send them out to your guests. After all, you are announcing exciting news. Vintage, modern, floral, delicate, bold, plain, we've got wedding stationery to suit everyone's style. Perfect no matter what time of year you are getting married. We are careful to select only the best quality card so that we can create something for you and your guests to hold and cherish forever. We can create the rest of your stationery to match your chosen design too. To order a mini invitation in this style, please use a Standard Invitation listing. Remember, we can change an invitation design to match this one! This listing is for simple Save the Dates only!

Printed on thick 330gsm smooth white or ivory cardstock or on our Premium 350gsm Cream lightly Textured card. Choose to have magnetic strips to fix to the back to ensure your Save the Date can have a place on a fridge where it can’t be forgotten or continue the design across the back. Optional envelope liners & matching stickers even give the envelopes a personal touch. Envelope liners are on white paper (ivory on request).  

The one question everybody asks us again and again is “Can we change x, y or z?”. The answer is YES! Although please remember that these are simple save the date cards, NOT invitations! We fully customise everything so if you’d prefer to word your Save the Dates differently from those pictured then just tell us when placing your order. Perhaps you’d prefer to save the date for some other event or just Save the Evening? No problem, they are fully customisable. Need the colour or design tweaking? Just let us know when ordering. We can even print a design of your own.

VARIATIONS
CARD COLOUR:  Choose from a smooth white or ivory 330gsm cardstock or our lightly textured Premium Cream 350gsm card. The premium card is noticeably thicker and adds a luxurious look and feel to your cards.

CARD SIZE
Available in 2 sizes: A6 or Mini A7. Please see sizing tab for measurements.

PRINTING ON THE BACK
Continue the design across the back or write a special message on the back of your cards

CORNER OPTIONS

MAGNETIC STRIP
Peel & stick magnets to make sure your announcement has pride of place on a fridge and can’t be easily forgotten.

ORIENTATION
Choose whether you’d like them Landscape/horizontal or Portrait/vertical.

ARE THESE FOR DAY OR EVENING?
Each variation must be added to your basket separately as they are processed separately, and each has its own proofs drawn up. Feel free to adjust the wording to something like ‘Save the Evening’ or ‘Keep your evening free!’

ENVELOPE OPTIONS
ENVELOPE COLOUR:  Kraft brown envelopes are included as standard. Other colours are available for a small surcharge. Just click on the colour you would like. We’ve searched for a long time to find the best quality envelopes at affordable prices and are really happy with what we now stock. If you do need a different colour, let us know and we’ll see what is available.

ENVELOPE LINER:  Envelope liners are on white paper. They come either Loose where they are pre-cut & creased, ready for you to stick in yourself, or fully assembled where we do the fiddly work and stick each one in for you. We create them to match your chosen design but if you’d prefer a different design to complement your cards, add a note to your order. Choose any design you like. Browse our other envelope liner listings for ideas. They are sized to fit all our v-flap envelopes and are not available for our Premium White peel & seal envelopes.

MATCHING STICKER TO SEAL YOUR ENVELOPE: A matching sticker for your envelopes gives a hint of what’s to come. Choose from matt heart stickers, or round matt, gloss, or transparent stickers. You choose what goes on the sticker. If you’d like to order extra, you can order extra stickers here.

YOUR WORDING: You can either list the details for your order here, or you can email them to us afterwards at your convenience.

QUANTITY
Most people end up needing more save the dates than they anticipated so it’s worth buying extra just in case. There is a minimum order quantity of 20 on the main listings but if you do find yourself short, there is a Reprints link in the first paragraph at the top of the page.
