Send custom-designed Save Date Houston, TX cards to your wedding guests. Weddings can be one of your most joyous moments in life. So, of course, you want to share that moment with as many people as possible. One of the crucial aspects of planning a Texas wedding is the invitation.
Your wedding invitation is your guests’ first impression of your wedding. The decor and details you choose give a glimpse into the style and theme your wedding is going for. Whether you’re going for a classic feel, a natural one, or a more modern look, Elias Paper Co. can help you send out immaculate invitations that will leave your guests in anticipation.
But before you send your invitations out, you should notify them of the fantastic news: you’re getting married! Although not all couples send them for their weddings, Save the Date cards serve as a notification of your upcoming wedding. You would send them out before the official invitations to allow your guests to, as the name implies, Save the Dates on their calendars.
Elias Paper Co. has several designs you can choose from. Browse our available collections and find a design that you’ll love. You can include your Save the Date cards as part of your package or buy them as stand-alone options.
Reasons to Send a Save Date Houston, TX Card
For some, Save the Date cards are optional. However, they can make a great addition to your wedding arrangements. Not only do they serve as an announcement, but they also generate the same feeling you have about the upcoming date: excitement!
- Make it official. Sending Save the Date cards can serve as an easy “reality check.” It can be a fun reminder that your wedding is only a few months away. Not to mention, it may be the first time you and your future spouse’s name will be together in writing.
- Gather addresses. While you’re in the process of sending out save the date cards, it gives you a chance to update your address book and figure out a preliminary guest list. By sending out save the date cards, you can get that step out of the way well before sending out the official invitations.
- Allow guests to put it on their calendar. Everyone has a busy schedule. Sending out Save the Date cards six to eight months ahead of time will allow your guest to block their schedules appropriately.
- Give guests the chance to make arrangements. Save the Date cards can be a lifesaver if you’re having a destination wedding. Booking flights at the last moment can be stressful and not something you want your guests to worry about closer to the date. These cards can also serve as a heads-up so that your guests can arrange accommodations as necessary.
- Introduce your wedding theme. Everything is in the details. The design and style you choose for your Save the Date cards can show a sneak peek into your wedding.
- Add to your wedding keepsakes. Add an extra to your wedding album and look at it to bring back fond memories.
Accessorize with Your Save the Date Cards
As there are many different themes you can choose for your wedding, there are different designs you can select for your save the date cards. Elias Paper Co. has several pre-set designs that you can choose from that align with our collections available. Each Save the Date card design has a matte finish paired with matching 5×7 envelopes. We have three collections available, each with numerous designs: Timeless, Modern, and Floral.
Our Timeless collection houses our most popular designs. These classic designs showcase the essence of a traditional wedding. There are two font options available for these designs, which can easily give your cards an elegant flavor. You can’t go wrong with a design loved by people then and now.
The Floral collection decorates your cards with botanical themes. Most have floral borders and accents, which can easily give your guests the impression of nature or the great outdoors.
Nothing says contemporary and edgy than our Modern collection. Our Modern designs exhibit a different sentiment than our other two collections. These designs bring a more professional look with fewer script fonts and right-aligned print.
Once you choose a design you’re in love with, you can send us your photos, and we’ll place them into the design.
Before we print them out, we’ll send you proofs of the Save Date Houston, TX cards you choose with the inserted images. We want to make sure that everything is exactly like what you envisioned. Not to mention, we’ll send you three rounds of proofs for free. However, after that, we’ll charge extra for any extra proofs.
Personalize Everything with Custom Invitations
Sometimes, our pre-set designs aren’t enough. They might give you the right feel, but they need something more to become perfect. If you choose our Custom Invitation service, Ella will work with you to customize your entire design. She’ll give you the full VIP treatment.
Through a virtual appointment, it’s easier to reach out to her and describe the theme and feelings you want to convey to your guests through the sheets of paper. Although this option is more expensive, we offer more design options than what our pre-set designs allow. From hand-written calligraphy to different fonts, you can better customize your Save the Date cards to encompass the essence of your wedding’s theme into 5×7 cards.
