I'm working on my SAVE THE DATES and I need your expertise!!

Anybody have any cute or original text they used for their STDs or did you all just do the standard, 'Save the Date...blah, blah...Formal Invitation to Follow.' I am about to just go with the standard.
What info should be on the STD? Did you put the wedding location?

I think simple is best. You don't want to over load people with too much information!
If you're poetic try coming up with something cute and catchy...I had magnets made up with a picture of doves/hearts and our names and the date. Easy!

I used 'two will become one' -at the top of the magnet and then please save the date.

I had the STD Magnet. I've received many STD cards and they get tossed to the side. With the magnet, people can put it on the refridgerator as a reminder.

Mine had the standard info:
Our names
Wedding date
Invitation to follow

I'm looking for a few things that I have saved. I'll send as soon as I find them. In the meantime, take a look on the various invitation websites (einvite.com, creationsbyelaine.com, etc) to get ideas for catchy things to write.
