I have fallen in love with a Save the Date Idea I found at a wedding website, but I am not sure how to duplicate it for all 150 guests I plan to send it to.
I really want to be unique with my save the date card to bring about buzz for the wedding, so I wanted to take my fiancee to a photobooth (like on the beach or in the mall etc) and put together four photos with different cards in each that say save, the, date & the date of our wedding along with where it is being held (the Swan Club by the way). Anyways, after the photo is developed, does anyone know a way to duplicate this photo strip so my fiancee and I don't have to spend hours at the photo booth taking tons of photo strips?
If this sounds at all confusing, i have attached the photo I found. I would appreciate anyone's help with this!!!!

Maybe you can bring it to a photo lab, maybe evn walgreens or cvs and see if they can copy it for you. I am sure they'd be able to.

if you go to shutterfly or snapfish you click on 'collage' and then pick how many pics you want to include then pick 4 and put one in each box!

Shan--I did some research and I found this on shutterfly you can do Save on the first card & the on the second and date on the third and then put the date and info to following underneath the pics. It is so cheap too and looks easy.
I think they would be so cute too--although I love your idea i think it might be really expsenive if you have to do 50 of those pics in the booth.
I did find this one though that is kinda what you want but expensive. http://www.magnetqueen.com/

my photo printer actually lets you put 4 pics on a page...but it wouldnt be long like that, it would be like 4x6. just a thought

Hi Shannon!! Congrats!! Do you remember me...Corinne's friend (Bill's friend Scott's fiance!!) does that make sense? Anyways, Corinne told us all about the engagement and the start of the wedding plans. I see you chose The Swan Club! How exciting...my best friend is getting married there in July 2008.

Re: Save the Date Idea, but not sure how to Duplicate
Okay i am just making sure i understand.. your taking a picture at a photobooth then you need to duplicate it for as many std's you need in order to use them.
Well if you get the strip and you have a okay ink jet printer the cheapest way to do it is scan it at 300 dpi and then copy and paste it into a template and then cut it down to size. You can get up at least 8 up easily on a 8.50 x 11 page on photo glossy photo ink jet paper.
If you want to have a semi pro do it then go to your kinkos or staples asked them to step it up for you after they scan it for the paper you want and the final qty you need. Make sure they don't rip you off though.
OR do a kodak.com or snapfish.com order. Either way your going to have to get it scanned if you are directly using the photobooth as your camera.
What I would do is take a good digital camera and setup a little area for you and fh to sit with props and get a tripod or another person to take you pictures.. then load them up to the computer and to one of the options above and you will deff. get a better quality print out.
