Announcements and Save the Dates

[MistressOfAllEvil]

Okay... so our big plan is to send out wedding announcements the week of the wedding. Along with the announcements, I want to send a save the date for our at home reception since it will take place a few months after the actual wedding. This will provide the 'link' between the wedding and the at home party.

I'm looking and looking and looking and I don't like anything I've seen, so I think this is going to be something that I'm going to have to craft on my own.

Questions:

Can I combine the wording for the annoucement and the save the date? I

If I do this, should I still include a seperate save the date token (like a magnet)?

Does anyone have any suggestions, samples or ideas????

Thanks Ladies (and any Gents out there too, seems to be more on the board these days )

I'm doing a combo announcement and invite to our at-home reception. I'll just take the design of our wedding invite and change the wording to include all the info (but I haven't done this yet, so I don't have any tips on squeezing all that info into the invite template).

It'll prolly say something like...

We were married February 4, 2008
