Have you heard about "Save the Date," which has been gradually becoming a standard at recent weddings? Save the Date is a card that informs guests of the date before the wedding invitation is sent! ♩

By sending a "Save the Date," it makes it easier for guests to adjust their schedules, increasing the attendance rate at the wedding! ♡ Additionally, sending it before the invitation gives a special feeling to the recipient, leading to a good impression. Receiving a cute card makes the recipient happy, right? ♡

If creating and mailing cards seems like a hassle, some people are now sending images via email or LINE instead of cards for their Save the Date! It's a casual approach and very nice!＊

Who should you send Save the Date to? *

You can send Save the Date cards to the guests you want to attend! ☆ It's fine to send them to people you've already informed! It's not mandatory to send to everyone you plan to invite; send them to those you really want to come! ♩

When should you send Save the Date? *

It's typical to send Save the Date cards six months before the wedding! * This timeline allows the recipients to adjust their schedule more easily and manage their time off. If you send cards earlier than this, there’s a high chance they might be forgotten or the guests won't be able to plan yet, so be careful!

What to include in Save the Date ♡

You only need to include the names of the bride and groom and the wedding date on the Save the Date! Unlike the invitation, it is meant to help guests hold the date.

However, if you already have some details like the hotel address or location confirmed, you can add those too! ♡

When sending to seniors, bosses, or relatives, it's important to be mindful of Japanese manners to avoid any offense. * Consider placing the card in an envelope, along with a brief note explaining the significance of the card for a more polite presentation, which will enhance the recipient's impression! ♡
