Wedding graphics: save the dates, monograms and invitations

Updated September 18, 20263 min read

How do you make a save the date video?

Pick a save the date preset, type both names and the date, choose a font and your palette, then export. The result is a short clip you can send in a message, post to a feed or drop at the head of a wedding film.

A wedding needs the same handful of cards every time, just with different names on them. These presets cover the announcement, the monogram, the venue details and the RSVP, and they all take your own type and colours.

Five weddings & events presets to start from

Hover any card to play it. Opening one loads it in the editor with every control unlocked.

  • A quiet eyebrow line fades up, both names rise into place between two drawing rules, and leafy sprigs open either side of the date.

  • Two initials drift in from opposite sides and settle either side of an ampersand while a ring draws around them and petals bloom behind.

  • A bordered plate opens, the venue name and county fade up, and the time, address and dress code arrive line by line beneath a short rule.

  • A plain plate lifts in with the reply date up top and the ways to respond stacked underneath, each one landing a beat after the last.

  • Two halves of an arch draw up from the sides and meet at the crown, leaves open at the shoulders, and the names rise into the opening.

How to make one in the browser

  1. 01Open a weddings & events presetBrowse the Weddings & Events category and open the preset closest to what you need. It loads in the editor with every control unlocked.
  2. 02Make it yoursRewrite the text, set your brand colors and font, adjust easing and duration, and switch the aspect ratio for the platform you are posting to.
  3. 03Export the clipChoose MP4 for a normal track or transparent WebM for an overlay, pick a resolution up to 8K, and the file renders on your own machine.

Which format should you export?

Use MP4 when the clip sits on its own track or fills the frame. Use transparent WebM whenever it has to float over your own footage: the alpha channel is real, so no keying or blend mode is needed.

Three tips that make it look intentional

  • Set both names and the date first, then pick the font: long names need a lighter weight to stay legible.
  • Keep the palette to two colours and one metallic accent so the cards feel like one set.
  • Export at 9:16 for messaging and stories, and 16:9 for the opening of the wedding film.

Frequently asked

Can I use these for engagements and anniversaries?
Yes. Every line of type is editable, so the same cards work for engagements, anniversaries, showers and receptions.
Will the monogram work with any initials?
The monogram takes any two letters and sizes the crest around them, so it holds up for both narrow and wide pairings.
  • Worship & Faith

    Church graphics: the slides a service needs every week

    A weekly service repeats the same set: a welcome slide before it starts, a sermon series title, scripture verses on screen during the message, a giving prompt, and an ambient background behind the words. Set the palette once and change the verse and title each week.

  • Tessellation Backgrounds

    Tessellation backgrounds: patterns your editor cannot generate

    Pick a tessellation preset, set the density and seed, choose two or three colours, then export a seamless loop. The pattern is generated from real geometry each frame, so changing the seed gives a genuinely different tiling rather than a shifted copy of the same one.

  • Curve & Field Backgrounds

    Curve backgrounds: Lissajous, spirographs and wave fields

    It is a background drawn from an equation rather than a filter. A Lissajous figure, a spirograph rosette or a Chladni plate is defined by a handful of numbers, so changing one parameter changes the whole shape while the motion stays smooth and loops exactly.
