I finally got around to getting some save-the-date cards put together. I'm meeting with a printing shop in Tulsa this afternoon to discuss paper options, quantities, etc.
I'm secretly relieved we haven't taken any engagement photos; I would have felt obligated to put them on the save-the-date card. It's not that I don't think Johnny, the horses, and I are an attractive bunch, but previous attempts at professional photos together haven't turned out particularly well.
Invitations are next on my list; I've made a rough draft, but feel like it needs some adjustment.
What did y'all do for save-the-dates and invitations?

LOOOOVEEEE Your STD cards!
Thank you! I figured I couldn't go wrong with mint juleps. :D
Love those!!!!! I'm pretty sure we did a graphic I made of BT and Eliot dressed for the wedding? I honestly don't remember.
So clever!! Love it!
Love them! Those are great.
Invitations were bought at Michaels or the like, and self printed. Worked fine and cost friendly.
Not as much fun as a mint julep tho :)
Love those!
I made our invites and had them printed online. Didn't cost much, but I didn't get to play around with fancy paper. But I was really happy with how they came out.
Love your mint julep invites! My husband is a former DJ so our Save the Date postcards (from Etsy) had a little record player on them and a "scratch off" area in the center where our names and date were. This was 5 years ago but I still really love those things! :-) I am very much a fan of all things non-traditional wedding.
Super cute!!
We're going no-photos, too. We have family friends who own a stationery shop and are doing the invites, so we're going to do the same style for both - something Art Deco-y.
Very cute!!!!!
We did magnets for the Save the Date (the wedding was held in SF and most of my family is in OH so I used a photo I took of the Golden Gate) and cute cards I found on Etsy for the invitations!!!
One thing we did that was a little out of the ordinary (at least in 2010) was ask that guests just email their confirmations vs. mailing them back. Saved a little money and was easier for the guests. That said- we only had 35 people so it was pretty small group :)
Love your Save the date ☺
