Not all weddings are created equal, and Save the Dates don’t have to be either! One of the coolest things about choosing Magnets is the variety of shapes and sizes you can pick from, making it super easy to find the perfect match for your big announcement.

They give you enough space for a gorgeous photo or artistic design alongside your wedding info. They’re understated yet oh-so-elegant—just enough room for the essentials without crowding the design, our Save the Date Cards standard sizing would be perfect for creating this type of style.

These beauties can hold intricate designs, cut to any shape of your choice, from love hearts to seashells for destination weddings, you can create these to fit perfectly and give your guests a little taster of your big day. They will definitely make a statement and ensure your date is one nobody will forget!

Fully Customisable Designs

The beauty truly lies in their custom options, you have complete creative control over the design, allowing your personality and vision to shine through. Start by choosing a design that reflects your wedding theme. For a beach wedding, consider incorporating ocean-inspired elements like seashells, waves, or sunset hues. Incorporating these elements will give guests a glimpse of what to expect on your big day.

Perhaps your wedding embraces a countryside theme. In that case, earthy tones, wood textures, and floral motifs can create a charming, down-to-earth design. These elements evoke a sense of warmth and intimacy that is sure to resonate with your guests and create the perfect rustic Save the Date Magnets.

If you prefer a retro theme, bold colours, vintage fonts, and playful patterns can transport your guests to a bygone era. These designs add a fun, nostalgic touch to your announcement, sparking excitement and anticipation.

Adding Photos for a Personal Touch

Including a photo of you and your partner on your Save the Date Magnet adds a personal touch that guests will cherish. A beautiful photo captures the essence of your relationship, making your announcement all the more meaningful.

Choose a favourite engagement photo or a candid shot that showcases your personality. Alternatively, opt for a professional photoshoot to ensure your image is high-quality and fits seamlessly into your design.

Select photos that complement your wedding theme. A beach-themed wedding may feature a romantic seaside shot, while a rustic wedding could benefit from a photo taken in a natural setting. Remember to consider the shape with how you would like to display your photos, a rectangle shape could help create a photo booth print or polaroid look.

Adding More Practicality

Save the Date Fridge Magnets are not just practical; they’re a fun way to make sure your message pops out in the whirlwind of everyone’s busy lives! Let’s face it, important info can easily get lost in the chaos. So, why not consider adding QR codes to your design?

By adding a QR code to your save the date means your guests can simply scan the code with their smartphones and confirm they’ve got your message. It’s a modern twist that not only makes life easier for you but also helps you keep track of your guest count. Talk about a win-win for your wedding planning!

And here’s a fun bonus, that QR code can link to a personalised wedding website where your guests can find all the details—venue info, accommodation options, and even menu options can be added further down the line. This clever little addition can kickstart your wedding planning in the most organised way possible, all while impressing your guests with your thoughtful touches.

Matching Your Wedding Theme

Consistency is key when it comes to wedding planning. Unique Save the Date Magnets offer an opportunity to establish your wedding theme from the very start. 

By incorporating elements of your theme, you create a cohesive look that sets the tone for the entire event. Consider the colours, fonts, and motifs that will be featured throughout your wedding. Incorporate these into your Magnet design to create a seamless transition from the announcement to the ceremony and reception.Think about how you can get creative with your vision for your big day! Are you going for that retro vibe? A Round Magnet design could channel the feel of a vintage record, while a rectangular shape might just give you that fun ticket-inspired twist. Remember, the magic behind your designs is all in your hands, so you can create something completely unique.
