Save the Dates: Let's Talk Location

We love the idea of destination save the date cards. When you're planning a wedding in a place that's really special to you, it just adds so much character to the wedding itself. We love reading stories about adorable couples getting married in the city where they met, or just in a place they've always wanted to visit. It adds another layer of personality to your wedding.

When you send out your save the date cards, you want them to express the vibe of your wedding to your guests; when you're planning a destination wedding (or even a wedding that really incorporates your love of your city), you want your guests to be just as excited about the journey. What better way to do that than with charming, location-themed save the dates?

There seems to be a common belief that when it comes to destination weddings, your destination must be exotic or tropical, but we don't believe that to be true. Ultimately, your wedding should feel like you and your partner, whether that's hip and urban or tropical and laid-back (or somewhere in between). Plus, a wedding taking place in the city you call home IS a special destination.

Here are some links to some destination/location weddings that we really love (for a little inspiration!):
