Newly engaged couples often have questions when it comes to their save the dates (and rightfully so—there’s a lot to it!) With digital save the dates, you can make life a little easier. The best part? You don’t have to sacrifice style in the process!
Below are some common questions that we hear about sending wedding save the dates, that will hopefully make the process that much smoother.
The holidays are a very popular time for couples to get engaged. With that in mind, we’ve been working with our designers to create an extensive collection of Save the Date announcements that feature you and your fiancĂ©. It’s increasingly en vogue (ooh la la!) to send engagement announcements and save-the-dates that include images. Now you can easily share our beautiful designs and your own style with friends and family to let them mark that very special date.
We are learning that online wedding invitations are moving into the 21st century and finding a place in modern etiquette rules.
We can learn quickly (within minutes thanks to Facebook) of a friend’s engagement. Sending invitations through the mail can create a margin for a delayed response if people move, or the invitation is returned to sender. Delays can make it difficult to have time for the guests to make travel plans with seat availability, price of tickets, requesting time off work, etc.
Since many of us are online throughout the day, it is unlikely to miss critical information. There seems to be a misguided assumption that online communication is exclusively for informal contact/events. On the contrary, beautiful sophisticated invitations are at your fingertips without delay, postage costs and a high price tag.

Online invitations are not the way of the future, they are the now!!
