When I became 80% sure where I wanted to get married (I'll talk about this in the next entry), I rushed things a bit and worked on the Save the Date first. One was because the venue we liked the most only had a few days left in April next year, and I thought, "okay, if it's going to be in April, I better send out the Save the Date ASAP!".
I wanted mine to be in a infographic style. I found a few online -- etsy, a simple postcard, a text-heavy poster -- but didn't love any. Then I saw a post on how Google map images are created into stylish vintage postcards, and temporarily veered from my original vision and created this. It's a Google map view of our then potential venue and I thought I'd put the Save the Date info somewhere.
But I saw the Gangnam style infographic recently featured on mashable.com, and I knew this was it. Aside from the insightful information around the madness that is Gangnam Style, I loved the colors, the humor, the font, pretty much everything about it. I reached out to Neo Mammalian Studios, the creative agency behind the Gangnam style infographic and asked for a quote. I knew it was going to be anything around I could afford, but I figured, WHY NOT.
Danny, the founder of the agency and an incredibly nice guy, got back to me right away but I was right about the steep price. I gave up but Danny kept reaching out wanting to actually help us. They had never done a Save the Date before and I think it had a potential for extending their line of services. He gave me a great quote, one that I can't reveal here unfortunately, and I am truly grateful.
You might think I'm crazy but so far, I'm most excited about our Save the Dates!
