First stop on the wedding-planning train is choosing a date and a venue. Next stop: sending out save-the-dates! For those brides who love paper materials, this part is fun and exciting, but it can be a bit overwhelming trying to figure out where to start the process. There are so many resources in the wedding world for this kind of thing, and you want to be sure the save-the-dates set the tone for your wedding overall.

If time is on your side (most save-the-dates hit the mail at the 6-8 month mark) and you're able to squeeze custom save-the-dates into your budget, we say go for it! If you're in a rush and looking to save a bit of cash, there are lots of fabulous options for ordering save-the-dates online that arrive quickly and look great. Some services even offer free guest address printing, various envelope liner options, or slight customization based on your needs.

Watercolor Astrology Save-the-Date

Designed by Mr. Boddington, these watercolor save-the-dates look hand-painted and achieve ultimate impact for an unforgettable night spent under the stars. If you're planning a weekend of glamping, camping, or just moonlit dancing, this save-the-date could have your names written on it (or in the stars). Available for order at paperlesspost.com.

No one would ever guess this old-school movie poster style was a stock option! Equal parts vintage and totally unique, this retro poster save-the-date is a perfect option for the couple who loves the spotlight.
