I just got off the phone with a friend who was wondering if I had gotten the invitation to her baby shower. I had, via email, and I had completely forgotten about it. It’s a good thing she called me, because it was about twenty pages back in my email. I would have never replied without the reminder! Email invitations are good, but even better are invitations that come in the mail and have a date on them. Those are the ones that I hang on my refrigerator and end up going to because there’s no way I’m going to forget.

I found these save the date postcards that have been created especially for people who want other people to remember their occasions. They come in a variety of designs, and are absolutely affordable. The next time I have a party, I’m going to imagine what my invitation will look like on the invitee’s fridge!
