I'll be sure to check yours out for inspiration!! :)<br /><br />Krista: <br />That's exactly what I was thinking!! And totally agree with you on the out of town/destination weddings. Our friends had a destination wedding in Cuba last year and were on the ball; invites were sent 1 year in advance and that gave everyone ample time to plan accordingly.DOMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00625685698817015732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444223627657013889.post-35283705186493946772010-01-06T11:57:41.840-05:002010-01-06T11:57:41.840-05:00No one expects a save-the-date for most weddings. ...No one expects a save-the-date for most weddings. The only time a STD is really needed is if you are having it on a holiday week-end or it's a wedding that most guests will have to travel to attend. I mean, if you're having a Labour Day wedding, you should probably let people know in advance. And if your wedding is taking place in Mexico, you might want to let people know in advance so they can budget and save up in order to go. <br /><br />We got a wedding invitation for my husband's cousin's a wedding in Costa Rica a couple years ago (he's pretty close to his cousin). Yet this was the first we heard the wedding was in Costa Rica, and we got the invitation 2 1/2 months before the wedding. It wasn't enough time for us to save for the trip, so we declined.<br /><br />Personally, for our local early June wedding last year, I sent out email save the dates. It worked for most people, and frankly no one expected a save the date. So unless you're having a destination wedding or a wedding on a holiday week-end, I would suggest you DON'T worry about save the dates.Kristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10010855220044881380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444223627657013889.post-75343266622284418122010-01-05T18:13:09.607-05:002010-01-05T18:13:09.607-05:00I made my own STD's and they cost me about $17...I made my own STD's and they cost me about $175 or so including postage for about 100 of them. I love them! They're on my blog and were little cards with stickers on them that people can put on their calendars and day planners. But we also created a wedding website that has a massive amount of info on it...also linked over on my blog. The websites you can get for free but ours has way more options within it and we paid $89 for 18 months to have it up. I think either way you would be fine. Definitely creating a free web site and e-mailing it out to family and friends is the inexpensive green way to go if that is your number one concern.Born to be Mrs. Beeverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10186370322714278012noreply@blogger.com
