If you have access to any photo editing program, you can simply create a circle graphic to mark your date.

Another cute way to mark your date is with a stamp, we chose a heart. Stamp and ink from Michael’s. This is my personal favorite. Super sweet and adds a pop of color.

Although, the brads are super cute too. We found these little gems at Michael’s and used a 1/8 hole punch.

  45. Hi, Please could somebody help. When I upload the fab template it’s only a jpeg picture view and I can’t add or change anything. Can anybody help??

  46. Do you have printing guidelines for these? Whenever I try to resize the image and landscape it it still prints kind of squished.

  47. These are awesome! (and so is this entire site!) I’m excited to know that even though I’m working with a super tight budget I can still have really sute save the dates! Thanks so much :)

  48. Thank for the free template! This was a perfect fit for us…just printed out a finished sample and we love it!
    Some suggestions if you’re going to use it:
    I dragged the image into a doc on word, then added text boxes for more info. I dropped in a photo from iphoto (you can edit the photo to have a vintage look and match the calendar).
    Word also let me play around with the hue of the font you all provided, so instead of the golden taupe, the text is now a deep purple…a better fit for the style we have goin on.
    Thanks again wedding chicks!

  49. I would really like to use the templates above to send it as an e-cards, is this ossible

  50. I LOVE these and plan on using them. I’ve used your advice on dragging it into word and adding my picture, but then how do i print them this size?

  51. i love these.! but i’m having a 2012 wedding. is there any way you could tweak this and send me one for august 2012?!

  52. I have successfully downloaded the files to my desktop, but when i try to open the file with microsoft task launcher or works it says the file may be corrupt. How can i load the imagine to something so i can print it???

  53. How did you drag it to word. That is not working for me. Thanks!

  54. Nothing will load except for the top banner when I go to the next screen to download the template :(

  55. You do realize that you cannot do anything with these templates right? So what are we supposed to do once we have downloaded them…just look at them and think, wow these are nice, too bad I can’t use them???

  56. I love this save the date design – I’m not seeing the link for the download, however. I have seen it at the bottom of the article on other templates on this site. Can someone point me in the right direction or email me the link?

    Thanks! Erin

  57. I couldn’t seem to download the file. What kind of file is this?? This is a super cute save the date!!

  59. Absolutely adorable idea for save the date cards. I am going to print them and add magnets to the back! Thank you :)

  60. It downloads as a .zip file which you then need to extract the .jpeg files from. I use WinZIP for this. Erin, in the first paragraph of the article it says “Download them here” – you need to click on the word “here” and the download starts automatically :) hope that helps!

  61. I love these save the date cards but I’m getting married in 2012. Any chance you are going to make some more to cover 2012? Thanks

  62. Hello,

    I absolutely love this Save the Date. The best I have seen. I would really like to use this for my Save the Dates. However, I successfully downloaded the file which started as a zip file and converted into a jpeg image. When I opened 4-2011 for my wedding, it sends me to a Window Photo Gallery page. I, however, cannot do anything with this template (i.e., I can’t upload a picture into the block and I can’t add the heart or circle). Am I missing a step? Your help would be greatly appreciated!!

  63. Hi I’ve recently been engaged and was wondering if you will be updating the calender for these fab save the date cards? Because I plan to use these for my wedding but I’m getting married in 2012. Could you please get back to me. Thanks
    - Renee :)

  64. Thanks a b unch. I was able to download the 2010 template, but not the 2010/2011 template. It comes up as file not found. Am I the only one getting this?

  65. i just fixed the link .. i broke it when i added 2012 .. sorry!

  66. I downloaded the 2012 calendar, but the July file has the year 2011 instead of 2012. Doesn’t seem like the other months have that issue. Help? Thanks!

  67. re-uploading with july 2012! dang, that was the only one i left as 2011! ha!

  86. I LOVE these, they are so adorable but June 2012 is wrong my wedding is June 30th 2012 it shows that date is a Sunday when it is a Saturday.

  87. I am getting the “invalid or corrupt” error message on the 2010/2011 template file. Is there something else that I need to do? FYI- the 2012 file is coming up just fine. Thanks.

  88. Thanks Wedding Chicks! This is exactly what I have been looking for with a vintage feel. A word of advice for the brides: Check out http://www.envelopemall.com for a less expensive card and envelope if you are buying in bulk. They come in packs on 100 for around $14.00-$34.00, depending on the style.

  90. I am in the same boat as other users…I can download the zip file, open the jpeg image…and then nothing. I can’t save, print or anything, just look at how pretty it is and think about how much I WANT to use this!! I’m having the same problem with all the down-loadable templates on this fabulous site! Any suggestions…help please!!! I don’t know what I’m doing wrong!

  91. Is there a certain program we are supposed to use to open these files? Please and thanks!

  92. I really want to use these for my june 2012 wedding but the calendar is wrong. The 22nd is on a friday not saturday. Any chance they’ll correct it? I loooove them!

  93. I have had no problems with these at all. Not sure what people are doing wrong. If you open them in a photo editing program such as Photoshop you can easily add a picture and mark the date on the calendar.

    I am planning on printing soon! I love them!

  94. I need the June 2012!! I really want to use them, but the dates are off! The 9th is a Saturday and not a Sunday, any way these could be fixed?? THANKS for an awesome idea.

    Michelle

  108. Super cute idea!! I love it but my wedding is this August and that particular link does not allow me to print. It seems that I would be able to print all of the other months. Just my luck. Do you have any ideas??

  109. This idea is great! The link to the 2012 template doesn’t seem to be working. Is there another link somewhere? Thanks!!

  110. if you are able to download it, when the file pops up and you choose your month, try just right-clicking on your month in the list, then select copy,go to your desktop, right-click and select paste
    the file should now be saved to your desktop, when you open it, you should be seeing it in a photo viewer, from there you can copy it to any editing program
    I use microsoft publisher so I can fit 3 to a page, change the color, and add our names.
    I hope this helps!

  133. Hello everyone,

    for those of you that can’t seem to download the template, I believe you have to go here:

    http://www.weddingchicks.com/2010/10/18/2012-free-wedding-save-the-dates/

    that’s the new post and I just downloaded and it worked fine. I used this for my August 2012 wedding save the dates and i edited in photoshop and illustrator. If you read other posts some ladies used microsoft publisher but i’m not sure how that would work. I’m a mac user and designer myself. I took this template and changed it up a bit to make it my own, I used similar fonts for the additional wording and I ended up changing the whole size of it as well. when i get a chance I’ll post a photo. Hope this helps :)

  134. GOod day. I love love love this save the date but it wont allow me to download. Am I doing something wrong?

  135. I love these!! When will 2013 be coming out as not planning on getting married until then!

  137. Could you pretty please put up the template for 2013! Also how do you insert your photo directly into the template so it will print on the card???

  138. i love these! but when i download the template it downloads as a zip compressed file and i cant open it. help!
