Today I wanted to share and talk with you guys about save the dates! It’s often the first piece you send out to family and friends to let them know the exciting news. I’ve partnered with Basic Invite to share some of the elegant and beautiful options there are out there.

Basic Invite prides themselves on being truly custom. Most of the designs (of which there are so many elegant save the dates ) have over a hundred color options so you can find one that matches your color scheme. The designs even include full sets with matching save the dates, wedding invites, rsvp cards, and even menu cards! Talk about one stop shop!

I also had to check out their wedding favours coasters, what a cute item to gift to your guests! Many of these designs match your save the dates as well! They’re printed on 200lb matte cardstock with the latest print technology so your photos and text look crisp and gorgeous. It’s almost like gifting your guests with a piece of art to remember your wedding by.

One type of save the date that caught my eye right away is the real wood invite. Real cherry wood veneer is pressure mounted on heavyweight cardstock for something so unique that I haven’t really seen it from any other stationary company. There are fewer design options for this type, but they still have a rustic flair that you will love paired with real wood.

I tested out a few photo designs as well to see how engagement photos would print and I have to say I’m impressed! The quality is beautiful and something I’m so excited for you to share with friends and family.

I have to say I don’t know how you guys decide which design to pick, they’re all perfect in their own way. I love that Basic Invite allows you to order a sample of your personalized design to see in person how your save the date is going to look. If you want to make your life even easier, Basic Invite offers a free address collection service; all you have to do is share a link, collect addresses, and get free envelope printing.

If you’re looking for save the dates and invites that are elegant and anything but basic, you have to check out Basic Invite.
