sail away with me honey

friends of ours have asked me to do their save-the-dates + wedding invitations for their destination wedding.  they have chosen sunny punta cana in the dominican republic. 
i'm excited about doing these because i think you can have a little more fun when scripting your pieces for a destination wedding. chances are, everyone you want involved in your special day as already been given a heads up that it's going to be overseas so when they get the save the date they won't be blindsided.

i also cannot stand when couples put too much information on a save the date. 
the save-the-date is just that. it tells you who, what, where + when and THATS IT.
if you have pertinent information that you feel is crucial then i would suggest setting up a wedding website. or a wedding blog (hello FREE!). it will keep your guests up to date on everything without trying to squeeze a ton of verbiage onto a 4x6 inch postcard!


here are some of my absolute favorite destination save the dates that i found while perusing the web they are all postcards so you can use the front + back, and the 4th one down are luggage tags - how cute is that!?

  1. Cool...I especially like the 4th one down b/c you can hang the tag somewhere where you'll see it and be reminded of what's to come!
