    My fiance and I decided to design our own save the dates.  Let me know what you think of this!!  Should I make any changes?

    I like it alot! Is there any text on the back?

    My critique:

    It is kind of difficult to read the text.  I would try darkening the outine on the text.

    You're missing some typical information: what are you saving the date for?, location, your names, wedding website (if you have one).

    I like it a lot, I would play around with the font a bit, ie. try "Save the Date" all on one line, darken it up, try it bigger, smaller, different font styles, try your names instead? Print out a couple "mock-ups,"  and pick your favorite - I find it helps to look at a sample on paper rather than on the screen. Very cute though!!

    I'm using Vistaprint and all the important info will be on the back.  It's going to ba a postcard.

    Sweet picture!  I would just darken the outline of the letters a bit and I agree with putting the wedding website.  But VERY cute!

    Vistaprint kept cropping the picture so I changed it to this:

    and here's what the back looks like:

    I can't see your new version, but I agree with everyone on the darkened outline for the text. What about putting the city, state in a scripty font on the bottom left corner?

    I LOVE the pictures you used!

    It is cute, but I definitely agree with the outline/shadow around the text on the front.

    Very Cute picture, but play with the Font/outline.  I ordered my glossy postcards from Vista print and they worked out well.  Check out my bio to view them.

    I agree with everyone about making the text darker or making it a color.  Other than that, I love it!

    i like the idea of the postcard, I love vista print, but the font is a little plain, it IS a wedding, as for the pic, i think u caught a great moment on film.  very sweet!
