Beach Sand Dollar Save The Date Card*
Get your guests in the mood to set sail on the adventure of a lifetime with the Beach Sand Dollar Save The Date Card. Each one is a 5" x 5" custom envelopment card, wrapped with natural jute rope and accented with a mini silver sand dollar charm. Guests do not tear open an envelope and find a flat printed postcard. They untie something, and the rope and the charm have already told them where you are getting married before they have read a single word.
Your names and your date carry the card. The bride's and groom's names and the event date are personalized in-house by HansonEllis, so the first thing anyone reads is the only information a save the date has to deliver. Place the card inside an envelope, address it, and send it off to all of your guests.
When your guests open the card, they will be delighted in the beauty of its design. They will almost be able to feel the island breezes and smell the balmy surf as they mark the date on their calendar with anxious excitement. That is the real work of a save the date at a destination wedding. The people you are asking to book a flight and a hotel have to want to, and a jute-wrapped sand dollar does more persuading than a printed line of type ever will. It makes a wonderful introduction to any destination or beach themed wedding.
It is not only for weddings either. The Sand Dollar Save The Date Card is a wonderful way to announce a milestone anniversary party or a Jack and Jill bridal shower. Use these cards to make people aware of any upcoming event that you plan on celebrating in style, whether it is a birthday party, a baby shower or a family reunion, and they will be sure to take a prominent place on everyone's calendar.
Enter the two names and the date above, choose your quantity, and give your guests something worth untying.

Which one should I choose
A save the date has one job, and the format you pick decides whether it gets held onto or filed with the junk mail.
| Beach Sand Dollar Save The Date Card | Choose it when the wedding is coastal or destination and you want the theme and the date delivered together, wrapped in jute with a sand dollar charm. |
|---|---|
| A flat printed save the date postcard | Choose it when the mailing is large, the wedding is local, and the card only has to carry a date. |
| A digital save the date | Choose it when guests are all local, nobody is booking flights, and there is no fridge door involved. |
For a destination or beach wedding, the sand dollar card wins because it makes people want to say yes before they check the flight prices.
