This is it—the official start of your wedding stationery moment (#PaperPower)! Your save-the-dates not only inform potential guests of when to mark their calendars, but they also set the tone for the style of your upcoming nuptials. Essentially, think of these cards as your wedding's first impression. We'd be lying if we said there's no pressure, but that's where Etsy comes in to be your save the date saving grace.
In addition to offering quite possibly anything wedding-related you could ever need (invites! photo props! wedding menus!), the online craft haven has no shortage of elegant save the date cards, fit to match your big day's vibe. Requesting your guests to venture to a tropical locale for your destination ceremony? Set the tone with Seahorse Bend Press's pineapple card. Planning to go the minimal route? Cocoa and Mint Studio's black and white initial stationery couldn't be more perfect. If traditional save the date cards don't seem up your alley, mix it up with a glamorous magnet, courtesy of Oak Street Press. You can even pay homage to your venue's geographic location with a custom map design from Sterling Stripes. Feeling inspired yet?
Get a move on your wedding cards and check out our roundup of 16 save-the-dates from Etsy. You may even find a viable vendor for your actual invites, as well.
