Holiday cards and Save-the-dates

We're thinking of sending our STDs with our christmas cards this year (to save postage and precious time). Has anyone ever seen/done this before?? I can't think of any good ideas... maybe a STD insert in the card? a postcard style card with 'happy holidays' and wedding info? a cute gift-type STD? I'm pulling a major blank and need ideas!!! ..we're ( Read more... )

I've received at least 3 or 4 save-the-dates inside of Christmas cards over the last 5-6 years. It's something very common among friends of mine who had June - September weddings, so I say go for it. Two birds, one stone and all that.

I have gotten a lot of STD's in Christmas cards!

Usually they just insert the STD in the card, or place it behind/in front of the card if it's about the same size.

We included our STD magnets in our christmas cards, which were postcards from Vista Print. I think people will understand based on your date that it's not a holiday wedding, I say go for it!

Two of my friends did exactly this - magnets in the holiday cards.

We did this. It worked really well.

I've never gotten one with xmas cards, but I've only received one STD and it was for an October wedding and they sent them around April I think (though we're getting married this October and if we had gotten engaged before christmas I would have sent them with xmas cards, we got engaged three weeks after xmas).

I would suggest just putting the STD card in with the xmas card. It might look a little weird to tell them to STD for a June wedding on a Christmas themed card, but that's just my opinion.
