Save the Date Post Ideas

Save the date. Make it hard to miss.

A save the date has one job. Get the date into people's calendars before they fill up. Upload your event poster or logo and we put it on real photos of billboards, street posters and newspapers, so your date looks like something happening in the real world.

Make your first one free

One tap with Google. No card.

The first post sets the tone for the whole event.

People decide early whether an event feels worth keeping free. A flat graphic with a date on it gets a scroll past. The same date pasted on a city wall, or up on a billboard above a busy street, reads like the event already has momentum.

Save the dates also get posted more than once. You need a first announcement, a reminder a few weeks out and a last call. Putting the same poster on a few different real photos gives you a set of posts that look related but don't repeat.

It takes about a minute. You don't need the final poster yet either. A logo and a date is enough for the first one.
