Save the Date question!!!

FH and I just received our save the date proof and we love it! I have a question for people who have already sent theirs out ... did you send one save the date to each invite, or one per household? Like if I'm going to send separate invitations to my Aunt/Uncle and two cousins + a guest each, eg 4 invited to the same house, would I send each of them a save the date, or should I just send one to each household and then send 4 invites?

Hope that makes sense!!!

I would say one save the date per household. I know some brides don't send a save the date to everyoone. Only the ones they really want there. Then you can do the seperate invites. HTH

We're sending one per household, STD's are not meant to be formal so it's fine to send it that way.

Part of me realizes that it's all going on the same fridge, but I kind of feel weird not sending some of my cousins individual ones. We'll see.

Thanks girls! I'm kind of leaning toward one per household ... I think I'll put everyone's name on the envelope though in order to personalize it more :)

Yeah, we're doing 18+ only, so some STDs will have to have specific names and not just The ___ Family.

Re: Save the Date question!!!

I actually sent out to the people I wanted indiviually unless they were a couple...I had a few extra so this was okay. Plus I got yelled at when I sent it to one household, my friend wanted her own as she has her own fridge and wanted one anyway.... I woudl strongly suggest adding names if it needs to bew specific (if more than a few people at the same address). Another issue I had I sent it to the family name at one address, they assumed it meant their father & wife who lived at a complete different address...I had to add them. OY!
