The first word
Save the date.
A save-the-date is the first note your guests receive — enough to mark the calendar and book travel, long before the formal invitation. Keep it to the essentials: who, when and where.
Match the theme to the invitation you will send later, and the whole suite feels considered from the very first card. Two print per sheet, ready to cut and post.
Questions
Save-the-date questions.
When should I send save-the-dates?
Send save-the-dates around six to eight months before the wedding, or eight to twelve months ahead for a destination wedding or a date near a holiday. They give guests time to book travel and time off before the formal invitation follows.
What goes on a save-the-date?
Keep it simple: your names, the wedding date, the city or venue, and a line letting guests know a formal invitation will follow. The maker above includes all of these in an elegant card.
Do I still send invitations after save-the-dates?
Yes. A save-the-date is an early heads-up; the full invitation with RSVP details comes later, usually six to eight weeks before the day. You can make matching RSVP cards with our free tool too.
Is the save-the-date maker free?
Yes — free, with no signup, as part of a set of free wedding planning tools.
