Vintage Travel Poster Save The Dates | Deco Weddings

For a lot of people (myself included), though you may not be having a traditional “destination wedding”, many of your guests will be traveling from out of town to celebrate with you. Which is why these vintage travel poster save the dates are SO fabulous: if you live in a gorgeous city with tons of history, making the city itself part of the invitation is a great way to mix vintage style with your hometown (or adopted hometown!).
They have that amazing WPA / art deco look, and I am a fan, you guys. Plus they come in magnet form, which as a wedding guest I always love. Who in their right mind wouldn’t want these lovelies on display on their fridge?
You can find those at Custom Alexander, where the same images above are also available in these really cool souvenir posters that you can have your guests sign and would be 10x better than a traditional guestbook (ours was a vaguely ugly last minute purchase and is languishing in a box somewhere these days…) as well as postcard save the dates.
And, while browsing those vintage travel poster save the dates, I saw they also have these fantastic art deco ad/magazine styled save the dates as well. They’re personalized with your name/location, obviously, and I think they’re just dreamy. I will be surprised if you don’t agree! But you are entitled to your opinion! But just take a look! Exclamation points!
Right? Those are great. Love ’em! Visit Custom Alexander to see more!

Reproductions of his work, known as “Petty Girls,” were reinterpreted and used by military artists as nose art decorating warplanes during WW2, including the most well-known example, the Memphis …
Unsurprisingly, we see a lot of art deco invitation designs around these parts. And more often then not they’re just… OK. They hit all the “art deco” marks, they check off the checkboxes, but they’re just… nothing special. Which is the COMPLETE OPPOSITE of how I feel about every invitation suite at Atelier Isabey, including …
Today we’re featuring some gorgeous foil pressed Art Deco invitations, most of them newly released designs, alongside a few old favorites.
