Wedding Save the Date Card Print to Order

A wedding save the date card is a printed announcement carrying your photograph, names and wedding date, produced on premium invitation card stock. Upload an engagement or couple photograph, choose the paper and finish, and add a plain or printed envelope.

Who sends these and why

Couples who have a photograph worth using. A save the date is the one piece of wedding stationery where a picture does more work than any amount of design.

Choosing the photograph

One clear image of the two of you, taken in good light, with room around the subject for the text to sit. A busy background leaves the designer nowhere to put your names.

Glossy or matte for a photograph

Glossy gives stronger colour and suits a bright outdoor picture. Matte is quieter, shows fewer fingerprints, and suits a portrait taken indoors.

A photo card against text only

A text card is formal and works for every guest list. A photograph makes it personal and, for older relatives, sometimes introduces a partner they have not yet met. Browse our save the date invitations listing.

Ordering enough

Count households rather than guests and add a spare set. Save the dates go out early, and the list nearly always grows afterwards. Accepted formats are JPG, JPEG, PNG and PDF. The original file beats a forwarded copy every time.
