5 Save The Date Ideas for your Indian Wedding !

When we got married,  a "Save the Date" was the last thing on either of our minds because there was so much else that was going on (I don't even think he knew at the time what the hell a Save the date was). We just did our invites and personal phone calls threatening our friends to travel for the wedding or else lose a friend forever was our version of "Save the Date". Having seen so many fun, save the date ideas however , I wish i could rewind the clock and do one of these . Oh well, I get wedding envy about 3 times a day so thats normal ! Save the Date on the Road : This Photo by Inck Fotofolio (Pune based photogs) is a super great idea . All you need is a photo of both of you at the end of the  road. Then have a friend who is a genius at Photoshop, add the letters on top. You could even go a step further and write a bit about your story on the road (20/11- we met, 20/12- he proposed etc) Save the Date on Plac-cards : Rishabh Sood from  Candid Tales  (Delhi) shoots some of our most favourite pre-wedding shoots. We loved this simple shot of the couple amidst a crowd holding plac-cards. You can add the date below the wordings on the plac-cards and make it your own save the date.   Use your ring to save the date: Dont have the budget or the equipment for hiring a candid Photographer?? All you need is your ring !!! Use your ring to circle a date in the calender or use it with your scrabble tiles ! Super duper easy !!!
