Unique Save The Dates Items

By Carolyn Wilson


After making a decision on your wedding day, what is left is to send invitation to guests. Bear in mind that people are busy which means that you will be competing with other invitations. As such, you should have unique save the dates items that will make your invitation memorable. Such items also make the invitation personal which builds anticipation for the big day.

Choose a uniquely shaped card. Shapes have a way of creating a lasting impression in the mind. Keep away from ordinary rectangular shapes and create a distinct card for your day. Make it easier to pin or place at a conspicuous place by including a hook, base or hanging thread. Make it as distinct as possible such that it stands out among other invitation cards.

Include a caricature on your card. Use a real picture to draw the couple in an inimitable mood. It makes your invitation different and memorable. You may add an ornament like a flower or let the couple engage in a dance. Use the theme of your wedding in the background and include words that are in line with your images. Do not stuff the drawing with a lot of unnecessary images that it appears like a joke.

A photograph poster also works perfectly. Identify a vintage look like black and white with images that match your desired style for the day. Use classic images of a bride and groom on their joyous day. Such a style is distinct from the mundane style of plain words and clip arts. The photo should be well embossed on the card to form part of the ensemble and be meaningful.

Consider a sticker ticket as part of your invitation. People use stickers of different colors and shapes as reminders on computers, desks, boards, etc. Include a sticker when making your cards such that it will be pasted on a calendar or any other visible area for your guests. The sticker should capture the date and venue of your celebration.

An artistic item will remain memorable. People easily discard cards after the wedding. However, an artistic item will remain on their desk or wall and will always remind them of your big day. It could be a canvas painting, an embossed cup, bracelet, flag, etc. A curved piece of wood would also do the trick. Most guests will keep the art for long and will always remember your special day.

Do you have friends who speak and understand different languages? Consider a card or cards written in multiple languages. This is a perfect idea when your friends come from different nationalities and speak multiple languages. It is easier to accommodate them by printing a multilingual card. The card also feels personal since everyone can read. When the message is printed on a single card, it will be cost effective.

What of an audio or video? Technology has allowed people to make digital invitations. Maybe you have no addresses of most of your friends. It is also time consuming to drop cards from door to door. Consider inviting friends by attaching an audio or video to their social media handles. It gives them an opportunity to replay the invitation over and over. Some may also use it as a ringing tone on their phones.
