After making a decision on your wedding day, what is left is to send invitation to guests. Bear in mind that people are busy which means that you will be competing with other invitations. As such, you should have unique save the dates items that will make your invitation memorable. Such items also make the invitation personal which builds anticipation for the big day.

Choose a uniquely shaped card. Shapes have a way of creating a lasting impression in the mind. Keep away from ordinary rectangular shapes and create a distinct card for your day. Make it easier to pin or place at a conspicuous place by including a hook, base or hanging thread. Make it as distinct as possible such that it stands out among other invitation cards.

Include a caricature on your card. Use a real picture to draw the couple in an inimitable mood. It makes your invitation different and memorable. You may add an ornament like a flower or let the couple engage in a dance. Use the theme of your wedding in the background and include words that are in line with your images. Do not stuff the drawing with a lot of unnecessary images that it appears like a joke.

How would a photograph poster appear? There are photos that send a clear message of your intention without having to add words. Look for a vintage wedding photo or one with the bride and groom in a classic car and include it on your card. This is a distinct approach and differs from ordinary clip arts and words. Professionally emboss or assimilate the photo into a meaningful invitation.

Use a detachable sticker on your card. It is common for people in offices to use stickers as reminders. They are pasted on desks, boards, computer screens, etc. When producing your card, provide a sticker that the person can pluck and stick at a conspicuous place to always remember the day. The sticker should include details like date and venue of the big celebrations.

Be artistic in your invitation. Cards are easy to forget and even discard before the wedding. To make your day memorable to all, find an artistic object like a flag, bracelet, embossed cup, etc. You may also curve the invitation on a piece of wood. The artistic feel will prevent guests from discarding your invitation. The invitation will stay beyond the actual date and into your anniversaries.

Do you have friends who speak and understand different languages? Consider a card or cards written in multiple languages. This is a perfect idea when your friends come from different nationalities and speak multiple languages. It is easier to accommodate them by printing a multilingual card. The card also feels personal since everyone can read. When the message is printed on a single card, it will be cost effective.

What of an audio or video? Technology has allowed people to make digital invitations. Maybe you have no addresses of most of your friends. It is also time consuming to drop cards from door to door. Consider inviting friends by attaching an audio or video to their social media handles. It gives them an opportunity to replay the invitation over and over. Some may also use it as a ringing tone on their phones.
