Save the Dates Revealed

Narrowing down the designs for our save the dates was tough. We had finally crossed off all but two designs and just could not choose between them.

So what did we do? We ordered both!

We waited for a kickass sale to show up through Vistaprint (we didn't have to wait too long... They are always having kickass sales!) and ordered 50 magnets in one design and 50 in the other. I am so happy with how they turned out. Honestly my only complaint is how HUGE they are! Vistaprint gave us the dimensions, but I really couldn't visualize it. When I opened the box I was like, "Holy crap, these are bigger than my face!"

Hopefully our guests won't be upset that our save the date is going to take up their whole freakin' fridge.

Once they arrived it was time to decide how to package them. My mom picked up the perfect sized envelopes at Staples:

But I felt like sticking the magnet into the plain white envelope was boring. What to do? What to do? I'm way too lazy to put any effort into packaging them up nice, nice like Miss Hawk:

So I decided to jazz up the envelopes.

Here's what our friends and family received in the mail:

Oh, what's that? You want a close-up of that pretty sticker I slaved over? Sure, no problem!

I already talked a bit about the magnet design, but just wait til you hear about how much fun it was to assemble these bad boys!
