Although Zack and I have already married, we didn’t have a traditional wedding. We only invited immediate family. I was happy being married so quickly because it took away a LOT of the stress, but I missed out on celebrating with all my family and friends.
As time ticked on after the move, I nudged Zack that we should probably pick out a venue soon. Then more time went by. Then more. Then I finally found a venue in Milwaukee, WI that didn’t have an unsettling price tag for the venue itself. Zack agreed and we booked our date!
I hastily sent out Save the Dates with a pre-made design from Shutterfly instead of designing something on my own. I wanted to give friends and family at least nine months notice! I got them in the mail before Christmas so they doubled as our Christmas cards for the season.
The quality of these magnets were good. They weren’t too heavy or too flimsy. We were able to put one stamp on the envelope for mailing. Shutterfly always has great special offers. The original order price for 70 of these magnets with envelopes was $174.30. I received free shipping and a savings of almost $90. The total price I paid was only $94.12!
Have you used Shutterfly or a similar website for a pre-made Save the Date? How did your design turn out?

Your save-the-dates are really gorgeous! Congrats on getting around to celebrating your love with one another. It’ll be a whole load of fun, I am sure! Shutterfly has really great invitations and templates to use. Love using their service as well.
Oh wow, those magnets indeed look really good!! Well done! And of course, congratulations on making an official wedding come true — soon! All the best to you guys 😀
Thank you! They were so quick and simple!
I love anything that is a magnet, in fact my fridge is full of them! Shutterfly is definitely an amazing service, although I’m never used them before. I have received quite a few ‘save the date’ magnets in the past and a few of them were actually Shutterfly!
Shutterfly was so easy and they look great!
This is so cute! Magnets are an awesome idea for a save the date card! I love Shutterfly! I have one of their photo magnets on my fridge right now. They are made so well.
I have only used shutterfly to create photo albums and also had a beautiful wall photo made. Though you are already married, congratulations on trying to make it even more memorable. Sounds lovely.
These are so cute! I love a nice magnet rather than the generic ones that are always on the fridge. Shutterfly has such cute stuff, I need to check them out again. I have so many photos I need to do something with and this would be perfect!
I have used Shutterfly before and also had a great experience. Additionally, I think your save the date magnet turned out really good. When we do family photos we get out photo books made through them as well.
I love these magnets. I have one on my fridge. This is very exciting. I love Shutterfly.
What a great idea to use a magnet for your Save the Date cards! I love them! I always forget to use Shutterfly, but I’ve heard so many wonderful things about them. They have some really cute designs and products. Time to update my walls!
Such an adorable magnet and perfect for those reminders about upcoming dates! We actually got one in the other day and I love it!
I love magnets! It means I don’t have to use tape on my walls or cabinets.
