When To Send Your Send The Dates

Save the date cards are especially helpful for weddings that fall on holiday weekends, during peak travel seasons, or in destinations that require guests to make travel plans. Sending them several months ahead gives loved ones time to arrange flights, book accommodations, request time off, and plan around your celebration.

For most weddings, save the dates are sent about 6–9 months before the big day. If you’re planning a destination wedding or expecting many guests to travel, consider sending them 9–12 months in advance. The earlier notice can make a meaningful difference for guests coordinating travel and schedules.

Include the Essentials

Keep your save the date focused on the information guests need right now: your names, wedding date, and general location. You can also include your wedding website if you have one, especially if it contains travel details, hotel recommendations, or additional information. Save the full ceremony and reception details for the formal invitation.

Match Your Wedding Style

Your save the date can offer guests an early hint of what to expect from your celebration. A formal design can introduce an elegant black-tie affair, while colorful typography or a favorite photo may be a better fit for a relaxed or modern wedding. Consider choosing a design that complements the look you plan to carry through your invitations and day-of stationery.

Choose the Right Format

Classic flat photo cards are a popular choice for featuring an engagement portrait or favorite image, while save the date postcards offer a simple, easy-to-mail format. For an elegant touch, foil save the dates add eye-catching shine to your announcement, and save the date magnets give guests a practical reminder they can keep on the refrigerator throughout your engagement.

Order With Your Guest List in Mind

Before placing your order, finalize your mailing list as much as possible and order a few extras. You may need additional cards for newly added guests, keepsakes, or last-minute changes. It’s also worth ordering a sample first if you want to see the paper, colors, and printing quality in person.

Don’t Forget the Details

Double-check names, dates, spelling, and location before approving your design. If you’re including a wedding website, make sure the URL is correct and easy to read. For mailed cards, verify your envelopes are properly addressed and that the finished piece meets postal requirements.

Make the Announcement Yours

Whether you choose a favorite photograph, a clean minimalist layout, or a design that reflects your wedding colors, your save the date should feel like an authentic introduction to your celebration. Find a design you love, personalize the details, and give your guests a date they’ll be excited to mark on their calendars.
