There are a few things we love about this design!
Firstly, it's super easy to insert a cute picture of you and your fiance. This is a simple yet effective way of giving your save the dates a unique personal touch.
This is especially true if you've already gone to the trouble of having a professional engagement shoot- why not show these pics off to your friends and family? Your wedding guests would love to see them printed on your wedding stationery!
However, our favorite thing about this design (and indeed many other of YorkLabs.com's designs) is the fact there are four shape options: square, rounded corner, elegant corner or scalloped (personally I think the scalloped edge looks best- so beautiful!).
YorkLabs.com's print all their save the date cards on an ultra-premium stationery stock with a 120# thickness and luxurious eggshell finish. High-quality, for low-cost- that's what we love to hear!

We love this utterly unique and sophisticated floral print. This design's truly a fabulous example of where traditional wedding design mixes with contemporary wedding flare- what could be better?
We feel the beautiful pastel palettes here, compliment the use of bold text. Simple, yet elegant- just divine!

We love this whimsical and homely themed save-the-date card. This is perfect for anyone throwing a shabby chic themed wedding. The use of bold colors to highlight the date against the paler pastel background looks fabulous!

Personalized postcards make for fabulous save the dates. Out of all of the examples, this is my favorite kind of low-cost wedding stationery.
These are a perfect choice if you want something vibrant and full of color. Plus, York Photo Labs print them on a heavyweight card with a luxurious matte finish. However, you can opt for an optional UV coating for extra protection should you wish!
This is something we thoroughly recommend doing- better safe than sorry!
We love the classy lace-style embellishment in the corner of this design. This is perfect for either a vintage or shabby chic themed wedding.
YorkPhotoLabs.com gives you the option of printing on both sides and fully customizing the postcard with your own photos and imagery.
What do I do when I start Getting Responses?
Keeping up with your RSVP's can be a massive pain in the butt, especially if you're trying to plan a wedding on top of a hectic schedule. That's why we recommend utilizing tools like RSVPify. It literally takes all the stress and faff that comes with keeping detailed lists of who's coming, who isn't and those annoying people that take forever to get back to you! This is how it works...- The RSVPify method works whether you choose to send traditional wedding invitations or digital ones. All you have to do is put your RSVPify event URL at the bottom of your invitations or, embed their pre-made form on your wedding website.
- Your guests can then complete your customized RSVP in a matter of minutes.
- RSVPify then captures all this information and displays it on one simple dashboard. This allows you to see at a glance who's coming to your wedding and what their preferences are.
