I did my Save The Date card as an electronic version via email. Wat I did was to design the card the attach to my email message 
It will of course b very nice if can link up wif the theme of your actual invitation card but wat happened to mine was after sending my Save The Date card, sth unpleasant thingy happened to my AD venue n I had to changed venue 1mth b4 my wedding. But in the end my invitation card din really match my Save The Date card but I love both cards, coz r our babies...our creation
Most imptly, do wat u love to do and happy abt it

Hi Queenie,
Save-The-Dates should go out ideally 4-6 months ahead as they need to give overseas guests ample time to plan ahead for the trip. It'll be good that prior to sending those Save-The-Dates you suss them out and just let them in on it.
The invites can go out like 6-8 weeks weeks in advance for RSVP to come in a month later. Give about 3-4 weeks for you to give final headcount to the hotel/caterer.

I made a jpg "save the date card" and send it out to my close friends and colleagues. Not all appreciate this gesture considering that this is very western culture. The gals love the file, but the guys just read and forget about it.
Anyway, I send it out 3 months in advance. Not too early in my opinion. I just can't wait to share my joy around that's all =P

Hi Astrogirl,
Most of the people who recieved my "save the date card" I sent by email just read and forget about it. Only my close friends and a few close colleagues replied saying they'll save the date for me.
Actually, I don't really expect any replies from them considering it's still early. My purpose of sending it out is more like sharing my joy because I am really looking forward to my wedding =)

Hi All,
I guess Singaporeans do not really understand what a 'save the date' is. I did an electronic version for my friends and real cards for the closer ones and some of them actually replied saying saying that I am so kiasu to inform them early! And some of them even took it to be the invitaition card itself! They didn't seem to notice the line "invitation to follow". But I am glad that most of them did reply that they will come.
However, I did not send any to my relatives. I guess I would lose my voice explaining to all of them.
But I do agree with D.O.G (coyote) to do what I love and be happy about it. I am a very 'crafty' person and love to get my hands all occupied with doing my own wedding crafts. Like AhCapp, I also can't wait to share my joy around
I am very pleased with my creations. Even though I do not have a specific theme, I am a flower lover so both my electronic and real card designs sticks to a floral theme. Here's the pics to share with u....

another option for save-the-date card which can be create to a magnet.. my gf just did hers, kinda unique
basically she printed out her DIY S-T-D(ard 7x4 cm) on a A4 size paper, then stick on a thinner pcs of magnetic sheet and cut them out individually... can give out to close friends & colleague
.. oh i just did a Will-You-Be-My Jiemei ecard in powerpoint slide hee
