The First Piece of Your Wedding They’ll Hold.
Before the flowers, the music and the celebration, there is that first announcement: you’re getting married. A printed save the date turns the excitement into something personal—a photograph on the refrigerator, a card on the mantel, a little reminder of a day everyone is looking forward to.
Make it feel like you. An engagement portrait, a candid moment, an elegant monogram or a colorful illustration can set the tone. Bright Print Works brings your finished design to life on 16 pt cardstock, with full-color printing on both sides and pricing that leaves more room in your wedding budget.
100 Save the Dates. From $48.
$48 for 100 cards in 4″ × 6″ or $58 in 5″ × 7″. Both include 16 pt cardstock, full-color printing on both sides and your choice of three finishes at the same price.
Flat cards. Envelopes not included. Shipping and applicable tax are additional.

Your card can introduce the colors, atmosphere and personality of the celebration. Here are four ways to make the design your own.
The Full-Photo Announcement
Let a favorite engagement photograph fill the front, with your names and date in clean, simple lettering. Carry the colors from the image onto the back.
Modern & Minimal
Oversized names, a distinctive typeface and generous open space can create a striking card without a photograph. A monogram adds a personal finishing touch.
Romantic & Botanical
Floral artwork, greenery and soft colors can echo a garden ceremony or romantic venue. A matte finish complements the understated look.
A Sense of Place
A coastal illustration, mountain silhouette or drawing of your venue can introduce the destination and make the location part of your story.
Substantial Cardstock. Room for Your Whole Design.
Both card sizes are printed on 16 pt cardstock for a substantial feel in the hand. Choose the compact 4″ × 6″ format or give your photograph and artwork more space with 5″ × 7″. Portrait and landscape designs are welcome.
Full-color printing on the back is included. Pair your main announcement with a second photograph, a personal note or your wedding website. Coordinating colors and artwork can make the two sides feel like one complete design.
Your Words Set the Tone
Formal, joyful or relaxed—the wording can sound like the two of you. These examples pair naturally with a photograph, illustration or typography-led design.
