Default First Save the Date

Before I send off as draft #1, any suggestions would be great. Thanks!

Its hard to read the last line of text. I would increase it slightly. I like the flow of everything, so I wouldn't want you to change anything drastically. Its just a concern....think of 50 year old + people this will be going out to with poor vision.

Overall, I think its excellent.

I love it... invitations to follow is small but its not an "important" line IMO. If someone has to look a little closer they will still think its a great std.

Great job! I love the font variation. Leave it the way it is. This looks like something I would've created

Yea, the last line looks hard to read since this is a resized image. I should have noted that. In the normal size, the font is actually in 14pt, which I'd say the size is equivalent to 10pt arial.

It looks great to me. They should be very happy with the result.

Yeah, I was wondering about that after I posted that. On top of that, my screen res is 1920 x 1200, so it probably looks a bit smaller anyway. With the font size you mentioned it should be plenty readable. I wouldn't change a thing then.

Why is the "save the date" text so much bigger than the persons names?! Should be the other way around.

To get the Idea of why its being mailed to them.
Its not the invitation, just announcing the date.
I see why you would wonder that though.

Thanks, but I'll wait for the OP to answer. It looks like the flyer is trying to be fancy for the sake of being fancy with the use of 3 different fonts?

But in today's world, I wonder the practicality of a flyer like this instead of getting the world out via email or social networking site that all their friends are already using. It is useful for old people that don't use the internet though.
