Engagement Holiday Photo Card
Let’s say you’ve gotten engaged this summer, or plan to be engaged by the end of the summer or early fall. If you have a photo from that special day, you can use it in a special holiday photo card announcing your engagement. Many couples also do a formal engagement photo shoot, with the intention of using photos for their wedding save the date cards. These beautiful photos are perfect for an engagement holiday photo card as well.
Save the Date Holiday Photo Card
If your wedding date is more than four months after Christmas (spring or summer 2013), a personalized holiday card used as a save the date for your wedding is another idea. There is no rule that says your wedding save the date cards should coordinate with the rest of your wedding invitations. Plus, you may have good reason to get your save the date cards mailed out before you’ve decided on a wedding invitation design. A beautifully designed personalized holiday card is the perfect solution.

Wedding Holiday Photo Card
Sending personalized holiday cards with a photo from your wedding is perfect for the late summer or fall wedding. Keep it a fresh, fun photo that doesn’t necessarily look like it belongs in your wedding album, or choose a candid you don’t think anyone has seen before. It’s also a fun way to use photos such as leftover proofs you like but don’t plan to develop for any other purpose.
The holidays are a beautiful time to share the news about your wedding. Get inspired now by the gorgeous, unique custom holiday cards at www.LookLoveSend.com.

You know the who, what, when and why. But where are you going direct guests on your upcoming wedding invitations? Selecting your perfect wedding reception site is not always as simple as booking the local park, function hall or hotel ballroom. Couples today crave originality – and this often starts with the reception locale. But beware when touring those off-the-trodden-path potential reception sites, read on for the top questions to ask before you book.
- Are there separate spaces for the cocktail hour and dinner?
- Where are good photo spots onsite?
- Are there any restrictions on decorating?
- Do vendors for the site need to be chosen from a particular list? If so, get a copy of that list.
- How many guests can the location support?
- Are other events booked for this site on the same day? If so, when?
- Where do guests park?
- What are the bathroom arrangements?
- Is the space currently available on your chosen date(s)?
- Is there a nearby space where the bride and groom can get ready?
- What type of sound system and dance floor does the space provide?
- Is there a strict cutoff time at which guests must leave?
