Before You Order

What does the Obsidian Vow save the date look like?

A black tie photograph with your names and date set into it. Silver is a hand at the waist of a dark silk gown. Rose is entwined hands on a silver silk gown. Both are smoke black and gunmetal with one cut of deep wine, and the same artwork appears across the digital file, the magnet and the card.

Silver or Rose: how do I choose?

Choose by the photograph. Silver is a hand at the waist of a dark silk gown. Rose is entwined hands on a silver silk gown. You make the choice in the details form after you order, and nothing else changes. The wording, the layout and the proof process are the same for both.

What is the difference between an Obsidian Vow save the date card and a magnet?

A card is a flat 5x7 piece, printed front and back on 14pt matte cardstock, that goes in the mail in its white envelope. A magnet is a 5x7 keepsake, printed on the front only, that guests can keep on a fridge or metal surface. Both carry the same artwork, set with your names and date, and both follow the same proof process. Either printed format also comes with the digital Save the Date files.

Do the save the date cards come with envelopes?

Yes. Plain white envelopes are included, one per card, and they arrive packed alongside your cards. They are not stuffed or addressed, so filling and addressing them is yours to do.

How many save the date cards should I order?

Choose 50, 100 or 150. Count households or addresses rather than individual guests, since a couple or a family gets one card. Then order a few more than that count. Spares cover late additions and keepsakes, and a card at the top or bottom of the stack can pick up a mark in transit.

What if I need more than 150 save the date cards?

Email info@thornbloomstudio.com with your collection, quantity, wedding date and shipping destination (the United States or Canada), and the studio will reply with a quote. The "Need more than 150? Ask for a quote" button on this page opens that email for you. Printed cards ship to the United States and Canada only.

How long does proofing take, and how many revisions do I get?

Your first proof follows within two business days of your details reaching us. Two revisions are included per piece, and studio errors are always fixed free and never count against your two.

Do you ship to Canada?

Yes, free, along with the United States, for printed cards and magnets. Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico aren't covered for now.

Can I send a printed or magnet save the date and also have a save the date website?

Yes, and they work well together. Your printed card or magnet is the piece guests hold on to; the save the date website is the link they open on their phones, with a countdown and Add to Calendar. The website comes with every Obsidian Vow wedding website: it starts as your save the date and opens into the full wedding website at the same link when your invitations go out.

Do I need a save the date website if I already have a wedding website?

If your wedding website is from ThornBloom, you already have one. Every ThornBloom wedding website starts as your save the date and becomes the full site at the same link, so there is nothing separate to set up or pay for.
