Save the Dates:

Save the dates are like the opening act for your wedding. These should be sent out 6-12 months before the big day.

Include the date, location, and a link to your wedding website if you have one. This is also an excellent opportunity to showcase your engagement photos.

Invitations:

Your wedding invitations are the stars of the show. Send these 6-8 weeks before the wedding date. They should contain all the essential details, such as the venue, date, time, RSVP instructions, and any dress code information. Your invitations set the tone for your wedding, so make sure they align with your chosen theme and colors. Personalize them to reflect your unique style as a couple.
