My "Save the Date" mailouts were an area that I knew I could make. I had found the idea a long time ago in a wedding magazine and just loved it. There are so many new ways of doing "Save the Date"s and I looked at everything, but I still came back to my original plan.
Michelle was sweet enought to spend SO much time figuring out the template on her computer and making sure the colors were right and on and on!!!! She was GREAT! I couldn't have done these without her!
I started out by purchasing postcard size cards at Staples. We printed on both sides. The first side had our wedding date on it in dark purlple. The second side had our names, a verse, and stickers that were to be put in the guests' calendars to remind them. That was my favorite part!!! We did three stickers per "Save the Date" that way multiple calendars could have one. Each card had a purple, orange and burgandy sticker to show the wedding colors. On the sticker, we had our names, the wedding date and the wedding city. I just loved the idea of pealing a sticker off and sticking it in my calendar (and I did). I did a postcard size, but still put them in envelopes so the stickers wouldn't fall off.
Here is the final product:

SOOOO cute! I'm sure glad you're chronicling all this cause when/if I ever marry, I'll have the ultimate resource! Who needs Bride's mag when you've got Beth's blog?!
