    I really like it, but I would add the city where you're getting married.  :)

    Very cool! I know STD's are suppose to be general, and not too specific. But I agree with Sunnydebs - you should atleast put a specific area or the exact location on there too. Other than that - these are really cool! I like the puppies! Are those your "kids?!"

    Perfect!!!

    I am glad I was here to see the update. Everything is readable and I love that you changed the middle picture to include your other family and also that you moved the wording on the pictures over.

    If you are going to put the city and state of where you are going to get married, I would put it just above the "formal invitation to follow". It is not a must have, but it will give your prospective guests and idea of where they will need to travel to and an opportunity to preplan.

    Remember, not everyone has computer access.

    Great STDs! I really like how you put the "save the date" words in the photos. Too cute! The city would be a good addition.

    It's super cute, but at first I didn't even see the words in the photos. Could you maybe make those green as well, to tie it to your date?

    And I agree with the PP, adding the city would be good. You could shrink down your date just a touch, and put the city under there.

    Doink! How could I have forgotten the city?!?

    Eh, see this is why this site is so great! Thanks everyone! I'm using the VistaPrint small magnets for 25 of these (for closest family and friends), so I agree that i should make the words in the pictures stand out more, since all of the text will be pretty small to begin with! The rest will be in standard postcard size, so I'll play around with the idea there, too.

    Thanks again!

    I think you need to add your first and last names because some of your guests probably haven't met one of you (unless you are really close with everyone). In any case, people are probably going to want to know how to spell your names. I like the overall layout and the flourishes.

    @Jacqi-that's a really good point. After thinking about it, I'm hoping to place our names on the cardstock I will be mounting these, too. Thanks for the suggestion!
