8+ Free PNG Save the Date Clipart Resources & Images

The ring is on the finger, the date has been set, the venue is booked and your wedding planning is underway, now it’s time to get your guests in the loop. The first thing to do is to officially announce the wedding date and what better way to do it then to send out a save the date card so your guests can mark out their calendars. Now, the question is, do you really need save-the-date cards? It really depends on different situations.

Save the dates are usually sent out a couple of months after the engagement party and 6-12 months before the wedding date, you do not need to send out save the dates if you are planning an early wedding (say 3 months from engagement) as you should be sending out your wedding invitations by now! Other than that, is it proper wedding etiquette to send out a save the date to your guests. It is not only a wonderful way to allow your guests plenty of time to make arrangements to attend your special day, it’s also a peak into what your wedding style would be like and what your guests may expect.

The other reason why some to-be-married couples question whether or not save the date cards are necessary is due to budget, I mean, afterall all the information is going to be on the wedding invitations themselves. Not to worry, for those who can’t have a save-the-date card due to cost, there are plenty of other ways to still have it and not make a dent in your wedding budget.

Do get a sample printed
If you are printing with a local printer, get a test print done to save you from having to readjust and reprint all your cards,  you will be able to check the color, the size of the fonts and the quality.

Do get good quality paper
If you choose to print, get paper stock that is at least 250gsm so that your card will have some weight and do not feel too flimsy.

Do not download random images
Firstly, most images found online are compressed for screen and usually do not print well. There is also a chance if you download from an unknown source you may get a hidden virus. Secondly, there are some images online that have copyright and it’s license is particular for certain functions. It is best to look for save the date images that are vectors and pngs with transparent backgrounds.
