Wedding Planning: Save the Dates

Normally I am not a big fan of Save the Dates- I feel like this is one of the many things the wedding industry made up to make more money. However, I had seen a save the date that was used to tell the couple’s story, which I thought was incredibly creative. Since our story is long (and involves long distance dating, break-ups, and getting engaged while not dating) I thought it would be a great way to fill everyone in on all the details before the invitations went out. Elizabeth Benjamin also designed these, and my copy-writing fiance helped to make the wording even better than what I originally wrote (that happens a lot). We used our main colors of navy, teal and pink, and our logo (minus the tagline). I think they turned out great, but I’m slightly bias.
