The very first impression your guests will have of your wedding celebration will be the save-the-dates, and, later, on the invitations themselves. These are the moments that really set the stage for the rest of your wedding. And they are super fun to create in ways that creatively reflect your personality as a couple.

Fortunately, destination weddings provide plenty of inspiration for cute and interesting save-the-dates and invitations. Maps, luggage tags, boarding passes, palm trees and even passports are great choices, and can easily be customized.

It's a good idea to send your save-the-dates well in advance of your destination wedding, even if all the details aren't quite ironed out. This gives your guests plenty of advance notice, since attending a destination wedding requires a bigger time - and financial - commitment.

We also recommend that you send your invitations as early as 6 months in advance. Along with the standard information such as date and destination, you should include details on the resort and how your guests can make their travel arrangements. Other nice details would be some information about the destination and activities your guests can enjoy while there.
