nice std!
...We solved the older-people problem by not sending them a save-the-date at all..
but I think a cute little note for just them would work as well. :)
Is there a backside that you could print a cute little story up? I think then it wouldn't take away from the novelty of it (great idea, by the way!) but would still be obviously not a random ticket to them?
It's really cute, but I do think it almost looks too much like a real ticket and people may not actually read it and realize what it is. Are you going to send it as a postcard or in an envelope? My cousin did something very similar for her son's graduation party, but she included it in an envelope with a matching poster of the "concert" so that it was obvious that it wasn't just a ticket. Or if it's a postcard, I agree with lilyfaith about having something on the backside that makes it a little more obvious. Other than that, it's a really great idea!
I think it is too cool to tamper with. If people are confused, they can call whoever you are putting on the return address.
I'd either put something on the back or stamp the envelope with a "save the date" stamp, so they will know what to look for inside
Ooh, or what if you tied a cute little ribbon around the ticket with your initials and date?
Very cute -- that's really great!
For our guests who might not recognise a save the date, we included a little note and it worked great.
Those look great! I like the idea of making it a postcard or writting on the back so people know it's not just something random...they look so real. Awesome job
thanks for all the suggestions.
If anyone wants the photoshop file/template, just PM me, Im happy to share
These look amazing!! I solved the STD problem with my grandparents by hand delivering them and when they opened helped them understand what it was and why they got one. The rest of our invites went to younger people who know what they are.
Such a great idea, I love these! I agree with the folks who say print something on the back of the ticket, or if you wanted you could just print a note for those who might not 'get it'. A somewhat more complicated idea is - you know how if you order tickets from Ticketmaster or pick them up at Will Call they sometimes come in an envelope that usually says Ticketmaster, or whatever, on the outside? You could make up an envelope that says 'We're getting married!' (or something to that effect) with your name logo on the envelope, and the tickets inside? That way you get the two most important facts across right away (who and what), and then they can slowly figure out the information (when and where) on the ticket itself. You could even just fold/glue a piece of paper as an 'envelope' instead of having a full on second envelope or something. Good luck, I think those are awesome no matter what!

Hi All
I'm looking for input from the hive. My fiancee and I met at a concert, and I also work for a band, which is a huge part of my life. We both knew we wanted to incorporate our love of music and concerts into our wedding. I created this STD
Crowns put in there to protect the innocent:)
My big fear is that older people (60+) will totally not get it if I just slip two of these tickets in an envelope and send it off. I've toyed around with the idea of affixing it to card stock and writing a small note explaining we met at a concert, but it sorta loses its novelty that way. Can anyone either calm my fears that its pretty obviously a Save the Date or suggest something to help with the design.
Thanks!
