If you're hard-pressed against time to make the announcement of your upcoming wedding due to work or some other reason, then we already have a no-fuss list of Save-The-Date ideas ready for you here. But if you are looking for something with just a little or a lot more, and have the time to spare, then here are some Save-The-Date ideas which are gonna be worth the time and effort you spend on it! After all, some of these require a good amount of homework! You might need to take a day off, travel, get the right clothes, hire a pre-wedding photographer... etc. etc... all this after narrowing down on the best idea and venue! So here goes!

Do it with some magic!

Cupcake Productions★ 4.7

How about you show some love while levitating? Yes, it's as innovative as it can get, thanks to some camera tricks! Hold a board or balloons, or just have props floating with you, but we can assure that this one is a sure-shot winner!

Abstract-themed shoot

Prism Lens Photography★ 4.6

Interesting and new, this concept is to shoot images that are not your regular photos and pretty out of the box! It's gaining popularity for pre-wedding shoots, but can be easily incorporated for Save-The-Date photos as well!

Up in the air!

Dilli Wale Weddings★ 4.5

A lot of Save-The-Date cards have pictures or caricatures of hot air balloons featured on it, but how about you shoot yourself on one for real? It goes without saying that they're awesome for amazing photographs, so it's definitely gonna be one cute Save-The-Date card or short video!

The Classic Black & White portrait

If you've always dreamt of wearing a pretty white gown, then you can take some pointers from Bipasha and Karan's wedding card, and have a classic Save-The-Date invite or video! This one makes for a timeless picture to frame as well!

Whether it's a fave movie's poster you want to recreate or do this 'Mr & Mrs Smith' one, that's so easy and popular, this is one shoot which won't take too long, and make you look stunning at the same time! Oh yes, 'The Ugly Truth' poster also makes for a cute card!

We love how simple and effective this save the date is. Just a cute photograph and some chalkboard effects via photoshop. Adorbs.

Imagine how the two of you would look on the cover of your favourite book, if you guys do have one in common. Apart from looking super cute and glam, it also signifies a 'new chapter' in your lives!

 

Get your pets to say it!

Vows & Tales★ 5

Incorporating your pets into the Save-The-Date shoot is another sureshot way of winning everyone's heart! Put chalkboards around their necks or if you can, make them hold the written date in their mouth... this one's a definite heart-warmer... but one that needs a lot of patience!

Say it lying down!

Remember the video of 'Lip to Lip' from the movie Katti Batti? How about you do a Save-The-Date video or card inspired by that? You're all set lying down on some colourful material as backdrop or even the road wearing cute colourful clothes! Scribble the date and draw props with chalk or get real ones! Makes for a super cute invite!

'Wall'paper it!

Another quick and easy shoot is to find an interesting wall and stand against it for the photo, which gives you a canvas to display the date. A colourful wall will look even cuter!

Say it with shadows!

Another interesting way to announce your wedding date is to do it with silhouettes or shadows! This is a good idea, especially if you're the camera shy types!
