Hello Everyone,
I hope you can help me. My FH and I are planning on having a beach wedding June 2009. We plan to keep it limited to his family and my family only, about 50 people only. I want to send out save the date cards but we are making it our wedding plus family reunion party for the year. How would I make save the date cards for everyone to know that it is for June 24th to June 28th 2009.
All of our family knows it will be for several days and they all are coming they just wanted me to let them know the exact dates to save. I looked up wording for save the date cards but they are only for the "wedding day" I need to save the days…… Please help

We are date twins! Perhaps you could send out your STD and have a link to a website (if you are having one) that explains it will be several days? The other possibilities are an insert or word of mouth.

Call it a Wedding Weekend and you could even put a list of festivitties on it:
Friday Reunion Picnic
Saturday We Get MArried!
Sunday Family Football game
Something like that.
I make STD’s (photo) and would be happy to talk ideas with you if you’re still stuck 🙂

I’ve seen save the dates that have the dates written like you wrote it.
Save the Date
Groom and Bride are getting Married
Any Beach, USA
June 24th-27th, 2009
I would then have a wedding website or make your STD a book-type and go into more detail with accommodations, activities during the week, etc.
We’re doing our vow renewal over a weekend in Florida, so I’m planning on doing a booklet to send out around 11 months in advance, as the location books up very quickly.
