Which save the date magnet do you like better?

I just got engaged and am planning a wedding in 7 1/2 months.. I didnt send out engagement cards or anything. Should I skip the 'save the date magnets?' When do normal invitations go out?

Thanks girls so much! i dont know what Id do without you and your fast answers :)

They are .90 each and include envelopes.. but then theres the additional money for stamps too.

Re: Which save the date magnet do you like better?

In my opinion, I would save the money and just focus on the invites. Both are cute but soon you will be ordering the invites and putting them together. JMO

Re: Which save the date magnet do you like better?

I like the calendar feature on number 2, but don't like that the wording covers the picture. The way #1 is set up looks much neater. You don't have to send out save the dates - they're mostly done a year in advance to let your guests know, especially if you're lots of out of towners, about your date. Otherwise, save the $ (I'm sure it can go towards other things) and just let everyone know through word of mouth.

The invites generally go out 8 weeks before the wedding date...

Good luck!

Re: Which save the date magnet do you like better?

I like #1 better.
I hate to be annoying, and please don't be offended, but I'm really anal about grammar!

I think the 'w' in 'will you be my wife' should be capitalized and after 'she said' there should be a comma, not a period.

Re: Which save the date magnet do you like better?

I like #1, but your wedding is really soon, you''re supposed to send invites about 8 weeks in advance, so you'd be sending them at the end of march.. so you might want to save money.. JMO.
I think the bride's name is supposed to come first too.

Re: Which save the date magnet do you like better?

If I send out invites 8 weeks before the wedding I would be sending them at the end of June right? I decided not to anyway just to save $$.
