save the date choices and wedding websites

When we got home, I looked at wedding magnets. I want to get Save the Date magnets to send out. These are the two that we are considering:

We are going to get both in the same color scheme.. so just look at the designs..
Magnet A

Our thoughts We love the simple easy to read design. We also love the colors. We might change our names into a script font or something. Aaron thinks it doesn't look that personal though..
Magnet B
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Our thoughts Its pretty. Its personalized. We'd want it in different colors - which they do. We like the color scheme of the one above. So we'd probably get it in the same color scheme. Plus we'd want our last names to be white as well. Why would they fade them out?? I don't know. I don't really like the font that the date is in, but we can change that.

I'm not completely sold on having our picture on the magnet.

What do you think - would you rather get a magnet with someone's picture on it or one without? I'm not sure everyone would want to have our picture on their fridge everyday for a year. Then again, if they love us and they are invited to our wedding, they might not mind. I don't know...

Aaron and I also worked on a wedding website, now that we know the date and place. I think it looks pretty nice so far. :) We decided to use a website called - weddingannouncer.com. Its free and it has some nice features. Plus we were able to get a name where its not long and drawn out, and it doesn't involve using nicknames or mangling our names at all. Yay. :)

So if you were a guest at a wedding, would you prefer to receive a magnet with a photo or without?Also if you are not a photo person, what would you do with the magnet? Would it be a waste to send it to you?
