My friend got married and their save the dates were literally Polaroids, like they took about 80 individual Polaroid pictures together wrote the date on the bottom and details on the back and sent out those
I love that! I've got a Polaroid from years ago and I know the film is expensive. You made me think of another option. If you create a text box for a 4x6 or 5x7 in something like Microsoft Publisher or Photoshop and input a picture with the information at the bottom, you could order prints at drug stores or anyone that does photo prints. Many places will do them around $0.50. Print shops like Office Depot, Staples, or Office Max aren't usually setup to do a clean cut, but a photo shop already has the paper that size. A bit more technical, but still an inexpensive option!
I finally convinced my fiance to buy me a Cricut when I said I could make our invitations and flowers (which will be made of paper) with it. We both have used it numerous times, none of it wedding related. I adore my Cricut!
I literally made my save the dates like this after watching this video, so creative and elegant. I will say as a warning, if you do this...it takes up a lot of time! You need to be prepared to do this from scratch (DIY). I already had engagement photos that I havn't released to the public so I used that. Purchased vinyl on Amazon and the transparent paper and the gold little clips. The most consuming part of it all is the cricut, the stickers and applying it onto the transparent paper. It took me almost 3 weeks to finish altogether. Came out amazing of course but whew! My time! 🤯
I’m so excited to do these with mine! I’m definitely lucky enough to say that I am at a point in my life where I have too much free time otherwise I don’t think I would go this route
Omg! Jamie girl you are amazing! After watching your massive invitation haul, you’ve helped my friend and I a lot when we found out that certain brands can send invitation samples! I’m a printer and I didn’t even know that! Thank you so much!
This is such an amazing idea! We just got engaged three weeks ago and I wasn’t planning on sending save the dates, but I think you’ve convinced me with these!
I love Cricut and I’ve been wanting acrylic invites. I’m one of those people that saves cards and wedding save the dates and invites since I love to scrapbook 📔
Love the video thank you. Im getting married in August at a destination and I want to make this project but I need 60; this will consume my time and patience. I love it thought.
Im Super Excited!! Im using this Idea for my save the dates! Im getting married next year and have been watching you and all of your amazing wedding tips!! Thank you This is AMAZING!!!
I just want to thank you for all your advice! We just got married and planned our dream wedding! We didn’t use a coordinator because there was limited options and none great quality. With all your advice in these videos we had a pretty near flawless day. I also use the monthly master plan, loved it! It’s very sad and bittersweet now watching these and not getting to plan anymore but Your my favourite RUclipsr and don’t get me started on your adorable hilarious family💓
We used printable magnet sheets and cut them out with my scan-n-cut in speech balloon shapes (because my husband loves comic books). I know several of my family members put them on their fridge! Of course, none of this mattered, because our date was in May 2020...
These are so cute! We sent out electronic save the dates because we didn't want to spend extra money or waste paper (especially since we had to send out 2 save the dates due to rescheduling our wedding).
I'm currently planning a 8/27/2022 wedding. We have the wedding & reception venue booked with access to a wedding planner the week of the wedding, The tent rental , Catering, Photographer, Hair & make up, wedding party , dj , my wedding dress too.. am I too ahead of myself 😬 . I figured taking care of the big item's would lessen the stress the week of the wedding.
No, not at all! Its great to plan ahead. I'm SO glad my husband and I started booking early. We got married June 2019. Planned a June 2021 wedding. Now a June 2022 wedding because we had to postpone due to the pandemic. Before we postponed, we had booked our venue, coordinator, photographer, and videographer around March 2020. I'm happy that we booked early because if we hadn't we wouldn't have gotten our vendors we wanted and on our date that we wanted. Also grateful that our vendors let us postpone without any issues. Last month, we just booked our floralist. Next weekend, I'm going wedding dress shopping for my dress. Can't wait. Now all we need to book is DJ, Make Up and Hair, Cake, and some small details. So not stressful if you plan ahead. I'm enjoying it.
Instead of Save Dates I am doing it on glas and are adding these as small signs all around our wedding....love the minimal design...only tip I have, particularly when using very thin font, invest in a brayer, this goes so much faster and it sticks great to the transfer tape ;)
So pretty! I’m not doing “save the dates” but I am doing a pamphlet invitation that has our pictures on the front and then you open the pamphlet to see the invite info! I’m getting it off of Shutterfly
Omgosh. I just sent you our invite which just so happens to be vellum but basically the same as these but vellum instead of acrylic! Hope you got it and loved it as much as we enjoyed designing it xx
My cousin's invitations for her wedding were 5x7 magnets. Covering about 1/3 of it was a picture of them the rest was information about the wedding and their website to go to for answering the invitation. I put it up on our fridge and didn't take it down until moving - about 6 months after the wedding should have happened (covid cancellation)
But also... In real talk I sent mine out 16 months out bc my family is tons of military and medical and I wanted to be sure that they had the extra long time frame (deployments, in house/surgery, etc)
Yes. 12 months works for our destination wedding in Hawaii. People need to plan, save up, and have enough vacation time for it. They will most likely want to explore and enjoy Hawaii after the wedding as well.
@@Vasalyn my first comment is more of a joke, she brought this up with the lovely humans club and asked that we mess with her. so that's why I gave her a hard time lol ❤️ But yes totally agree! Mine is in PR, so same situation
It might be cute to glue a wood veneer frame on top of the acrylic and so it looks like a picture frame. I bought beautiful wood paper and I think it would look so cute on the fridge with a magnet.
I know this is random ... but how do you exit your own wedding? Do you just walk out? Do you announce it? What kind of vehicle? So many questions! Hahah
How do you send these invites?!? I am buy bubble wrap envelopes to prevent the acrylic from being cracked… this is going to cost a bunch of money $3 something per postage. Or am I doing it wrong and there is a cheaper way? I have 80 going out soon…
How long does this take?? I would love to do this. Yet looks very time consuming :/ especially for people like me who may not be as talented even with something so simple lol
Hi jamie! PLEASE READ THIS!! I NEED HELP! My fiance and i are gettting married 09/17/2022. He is currently off in an undisclosed location in the middle east... our unique idea is to have him take a picture with a sign saying SAVE THE DATE and myself take a picture with a sign that says our date and edit them together into one picture.... any recommendations on how to photoshop them together?!
If you have Facebook I would recommend searching for photo editing groups and post the pictures in the group. People do it for free for others all the time
Sending invites/STDs seems very wasteful. Think about how much waste is generated to deliver your cards to you and to your guests, and all the paper waste. Nowadays, I've seen many people just send out a photo of the STD via text/email or wedding website. Less waste, and less money.
Please do not use plastic (what acrylic is) for Save the dates or inventations - people WILL throw it away, and so you produce plastic garbage for a cause you could just as well use paper. You can make LOVELY paper versions of this (also with your Cricut)

I would love to see you tackle a mirror sign for a wedding
I did one similar to this with vellum paper with the same thought, people LOVE pictures!

This would ba amazing as a magnet too so they could be on the fridge as a daily reminder!
Love the idea of a magnet! Great keepsake!
This is a great idea!

I sent a personalised candle for save the date. It wasn't very expensive to do this. Love love love this and so did my guests dud also
I love this- I just came from another video from 3 years ago where you were talking about Cricket! You really HAVE MADE IT!! You go girl
This is really cool! My wedding is next June so this video came at the perfect time!
Loved the Cricut ASMR

My favorite save the date diy video so far!! So doable! Thank you 💗
Best day of the week! Love Jamie and her videos
I would love to see a wood sign cricut project.
Do the vinyl letters stick to wood? Or do you have to make a stencil and paint it on?
I LOVE THIS IDEA!! Thank you!!
Creative. But people who doesn’t like to keep memento (or other people’s wedding pic) will still throw it away no matter how pretty it is.
As someone who recycles every Christmas card we get (we don’t send them either) and hates clutter…i would 100% still throw this away lol.
I love this!! but I there a way to stick the photo to the back of the acrylic? Instead of using the clip.
I love this so much
This is genius! 🥰

Omgsh I love these!!!! Has anyone found already cut acrylic???? I tried looking for some and only see big sheets. Would love to not cut them all.

That's a great idea because a pic with words actually on it looks cheap (IMPO)
12 months before the wedding!?! Geeeez 😂

Can I do this with the Cricut air 2?
It might be cute to glue a wood veneer frame on top of the acrylic and so it looks like a picture frame. I bought beautiful wood paper and I think it would look so cute on the fridge with a magnet.
What is the font of the save the date and where did you get it from ! I love it 😍
Would you recommend doing this for invites as well?
I'M HEEEERE !!
I MADE IT 😃
I sent out cute save the date magnets so people can leave on their fridge as a reminder 😂 - Wooden personalised ones from Wilbert & Willow online :3
Cricut ASMR lol xD
This is so cute 🥰 I want and I only have 35 to make 😉 xx
Please do a video on making like "mr and mrs" tshirts or hats or something with the cricut (something more fabric based)
I know this is random ... but how do you exit your own wedding? Do you just walk out? Do you announce it? What kind of vehicle? So many questions! Hahah

Does the couple took tgose pictures months prior to the actual wedding? They are wearing the wedding gown.
have to chuckle that the Cricut ASMR is, "CHUG-CHUNK-CHASSDDFGJKL"
What’s the font for the date??
How long does this take?? I would love to do this. Yet looks very time consuming :/ especially for people like me who may not be as talented even with something so simple lol
Just create a form on Google & send it to your guest electronically...
sheesh I have never been this early!
Sending my invite! They were not as pretty as that but hopefully you will like it!
I’m getting married in September- this year, and I haven’t even taken engagement photos 🤦🏼♀️
ohhhhhh my gosh oh no, I have been saying "cry-cut" for literal years hahaha
I already had my wedding 2 months ago

I just skipped the save the dates. not worth the extra money. All my guests are local anyways so 2 months is more than enough notice.

Hey Jamie, since I live in Germany I can't send you our invites so I sent you pictures of them on Instagram ;) ...Hope you like them!
