2. The single
most depressing or exciting social
media site on the Internet
Facebook can be depressing if you log on every day, as I do,
and you see that another one of your old childhood friends is engaged. As you sit with their engagement on
your screen staring at you as hard as it possibly can, your ever so single mind
starts to wonder…maybe I will be invited to their wedding…that’s when it turns
exciting.
Shortly after you receive news of the engagement you start
checking the mail daily to see if you were lucky enough to make the cut, and
hope that your save the date will be sitting in your mailbox when you return
home from work.
I am trying to understand my obsession with save the dates,
but I cannot put an exact finger on it.
My best guess is that it is the first impression (other than blowing up
everyone’s Facebook mini-feed) your guests will receive of your big day. Save the dates can really set the mood
and theme of your wedding day.
Below are some of my favorites.
The “tie the knot” save the date struck my attention because
it is so clever and I have never seen anything like it before, and I’m sure
your guests haven’t either. The
second one is adorable because the groom was compliant in having a photo
shoot. It is cute they wore football jerseys because
we all know that was probably his idea! I love the third one because she is
wearing cowboy boots and that is my favorite shoe of all time, and it sets the
tone that this will probably be a country chic wedding.
P.S. An easy way to kill two birds with one stone, and to
keep your hubby happy with only one photo shoot, would be to hold off on the
engagement photos until you pick the date of your wedding and have the photographer
take a save the date shot as well.
Until next time,
Elise
