August 2013 Weddings

save the dates

I want to start looking into them - I'm planning on using pics from our engagement session for either a card or magnet type STD.

Where did you get yours? What was the price range if you're willing to share?

    I purchased my save the dates like back in october lol I found a really good deal on shutterfly where I ended up getting 120 save the date cards that i created w my engagement pics for $35 when the origional price was $95 the offer was too good to let slip by so we bought them super early. lol sign up for shutterfly they always have really good deals every week.

    I got mine from Wedding Paper Divas. They were having a 25 off promo, so it was around 75 for 70 postcards. Not the cheapest out there, but we wanted nonpicture postcards and I loved their designs! The other place I looked was vistaprint and they didn't seem to have postcard options. When is everyone sending theirs? We have a Friday wedding so I want to send them on the early side of the acceptable range.

  • I am getting mine off of vistaprint. They had a groupon for $17 for $70 worth of printing. Which is like the exact amount I needed to print 100 of them!

  • I am not 100% sure how we are going to do ours yet. I want to do a "film strip" type idea on a magnet. I have looked at craft stores and its about $15 to buy 50 strips of magnet so I might end up printing them myself.
  • I am planning on doing a postcard with a picture from our e-pics on Vistaprint. We aren't doing our e-pics until September, so I haven't started seriously looking yet, but I know there are always Groupons out there for Vistaprint. Hopefully I can snag one before I need to make them. A friend also told me to just Google "free vistaprint postcards" and you can sometimes find coupon codes! I am planning on sending them out 6 months before, so the beginning of February.

  • Shutterfly is great. I made our guestbook using shutterfly.
  • I used a groupon $17 for $70 deal and made custom magnets for our save the dates.  They turned out great and I'm thinking we'll send them at the beginning of September.

    I plan on using shutterfly to make our guestbook and I'm using it right now to make a nice photobook of our engagment pictures.  You can usually find deals for them on Groupon or Livingsocial also.
