A new beginning, so save-the-date!


I have been waiting for this moment for some time, so I am very happy to share that my little sister, Katie, is engaged! She will be getting married next April on the beautiful emerald coast in Rosemary Beach, Florida. What excites me the most about that is I live 20 minutes from Rosemary! I get to share all my expertise in the wedding business and help her make every detail the best it can be! I want to take you all on the journey as we carefully plan and execute all her bridal decisions when it comes to papers. The latest question I got was... "When are you supposed to send out a save-the-date?" My answer, about 6 months before the event.
It is very helpful to send a save-the-date announcement to notify your guests of the date and location. Many people need to plan months in advance to take off work, plus save for the costs of traveling. It is helpful to include recommended accommodations so quests can reserve a room in plenty of time. We have not chosen Katie's save-the-date card yet, so stay tuned for the exciting reveal! Question for our readers: Do you think Katie should stick to the beach theme for the save-the-date, or do something different?
Sweet Bay Prints offers many adorable save-the-date cards online. The cool thing is just about any card can be turned into a save-the-date, so look at all our designs for something that coordinates with your wedding colors and style!
