The first thing that you should do is to get a good photograph of you and your fiance. Just choose a beautiful backdrop like a beach, a forest, or a place that is special and unique to you as a couple. Some couples like to do memorable activities that showcase their love and affection, such as riding a double bicycle or standing in a field of blooming wildflowers while holding hands. If you would like, hold a poster or a card in the photograph that displays the date of your wedding. If you do not want to hold the card, just pose for the picture and address the date later.
Add the Text
Using a basic photo editing program, you can add text to the picture with your computer. This text should include your names at the very least. If you did not put the date into the photograph itself, you can can write it on the picture at this point. You do not need to worry about giving out the location of the ceremony or anything of this nature since all of these things will be addressed in the invitations that will follow.
Order Your Postcards
The last step is to work with an online printing company to create custom postcards using your photograph. Postcards can save you a lot of money because you will not have to buy envelops for each of the cards. You do not even have to spend any time writing a message on the back of each one. Just write down the recipient's address, adhere a stamp to the upper righthand corner, and drop the postcard in the mail. This is a fast and easy way to get the whole process started, to ensure that everyone that you want to be at your wedding will be able to put it on their calendars soon enough to plan around the date.
