A lot has changed since we first started reviewing places to buy for Save the Dates. But our top choice has always been the same in Wedding Paper Divas. Back then and today they offered the best combination of overall value and quality for Save the Date cards. They are unique in that they work exclusively with many top designers to develop beautiful Save the date designs for every taste and occasion.

Although, in the past 3 years since we first endorsed them they have added a ton of new products and designs. For many years they focused only on Save the Date cards. But in recent years they have expanded and now offer Save the Date Magnets and also Save the Date Postcards. In addition, they have the largest selection of Save the Dates online.

Paper Culture is a fairly new entrant to the online stationary and invitations space. I first became aware of them when we received some holiday cards last year. They have made quite a splash in Save the Dates. Until recently they only sold baby announcements, baby shower invitations, and birthday invites. I’ve been eagerly awaiting their Save the Dates and am happy to announce they are finally here. I think they were well worth the wait as they have over 100 designs that are absolutely fabulous! I can’t wait to see what else they come up with.

Paper Culture offers very high quality paper as they use 130 lb. weight paper for their cards. And they have nice extra touches like rounded corners. These small details can definitely make a difference on the impression your Save the Dates will make. Paper Culture also offers a mail & message service where they will print, address (both return and recipient), stamp and finally mail your cards on your behalf. The great thing is they do all of this for just the cost of the stamp. They have a great comparison grid to show they compare to other companies. Here are a few of my favorite Save the Date designs from Paper Culture.

The pricing is also very straightforward. All cards are priced the same no matter what the design. Cost varies only by the number of cards you order.

Cards 1-20: $2.29 each (i.e. the first 20 cards are always $2.29 no matter how many you order)
Cards 21-60: $1.95 each (i.e. the next 40 cards are always $1.95)
Cards 61-99: $1.72 each (i.e. the next 39 cards are always $1.72)
Cards 100+: $1.49 each (i.e. if you order 150 cards, cards #100-150 are $1.49 each)

Paper Culture also prides itself on being eco-friendly and green. All cards are printed on 100% post consumer recycled paper and all packaging and envelopes are recycled. So you can get eco Save the Dates. In fact the company is actually carbon neutral! As a side note they are based in wonderful city of Burlingame in the San Francisco Peninsula.

In this economy this is a great value to help save money.

Some designs with letterpress or higher weight paper can easily be over $3.00 per card. Although you do receive discounted pricing with higher order quantities. Overall, from a price vs. quality stand point we still think Wedding Paper Divas offers the best value in terms of Save the Date cards.

Another positive is the high degree of personalization allowed. For most designs, you can choose different fonts, font colors, customize messages, and even edit photos to include sepia highlights or convert color photos to black and white. This really let’s you make custom cards. Wedding Paper Divas offers both traditional Save the Date Cards as well as Photo Save the Dates.

One unique service Wedding Paper Divas offers is complimentary photo touch ups on every card. Their in-house designers can brighten or sharpen images and even remove red eye. They will of course contact you to discuss any changes before they are made. I know they can even “hide” small blemishes like acne or a unsightly pimple.

One of our favorite designers is Turquoise Creative that creates the Happy Branch Save the Date photo card. The designs are stunning with beautiful pastel colors and clean lines and simple fonts. Many of the designs offer the ability to add a custom photo that is printed as part of the card. And of course you can customize the content including the message and the date and venue of your wedding.
