Once we finally decided on a destination, a venue and had a date we realized that we were really in a huge time crunch for inviting our guests. We decided to go ahead and send out email destination wedding invites / save the dates to our friends and family while we were waiting to get our boarding pass invites done. Check them out and let me know what you think:
We've decided on forever
and forever begins when we,
Suzanne Franco
and
Kenneth Land
unite in marriage
Tuesday, the thirtieth of June
at three o'clock in the afternoon
Dreams Resort
Tulum, Mexico
We are so excited to be making it "official" and we would love to share this moment with you. We will be traveling to Tulum , Mexico with all five kids to exchange vows on the beach ... celebrating our love and the blending of our families as one. Our ceremony will be held on Tuesday, June 30, 2009 at 3:00 p.m. at the Dreams resort.
We have set up a wedding website www.kenandsuzanne.com where we have posted more information about our "big day" and we will continue to add information as we collect it.
We hope to see you in Tulum! It's a great "excuse" to get away and enjoy an amazing vacation ... and we'll all have so much fun together!
Love,
Ken & Suzanne
.. and Austin, Nathan, Emily, Alyssa, and Cobey

What a great idea! All the information you need to know in the email.
Were these a template you found or did you just put them together? I like the idea of sending out an email type of save the date instead of printing, addressing and mailing twice. Good job and thanks for sharing the actual email and not just the idea of one.
I wish we would’ve used an email like this because I felt so stressed out about getting our invites out “on time” and I really wanted folks t know what was going on with our plans much earlier then when they received their invites. This would’ve been so quick and easy and there are only a few people on the list who I don’t have email addresses for. Thanks for sharing so others will know what to do (saves time and money!).
@rose ~ Thanks!
@denise ~ it wasn’t a template I just added the pics and wrote it out (I liked the font I actually used on the email I sent out but I “lost” that font when I copied it over here to the site).
@karen ~ sorry you didn’t know either. That’s one reason the site is so important to me to help as many people as possible – we can all learn from each other.
If any of you ladies have any tips and/or ideas please share them with me so I can post them for others. *SmiLes*Suzanne
