Will our names and date be readable?

Yes — guaranteed by design. The end-card text is set in real typefaces, never generated by an image model, so the one thing a save-the-date must communicate is always perfectly crisp. It is the same real-typography rule behind the WedGenie invitation maker.

What does a save-the-date video cost?

A video generation costs 6 credits. Credits come with WedGenie Pro ($14.99/month) or one-time packs from $9.99 for 20 credits — and if a generation ever fails, the credits are refunded automatically.

Where can we share it?

Anywhere a video plays: the family group chat, Instagram and TikTok stories, your wedding website, or embedded in an email. You download the file and it is yours. Pair it with your wedding hashtag so early photos start collecting in one place.

What photo works best?

One great photo of the two of you — clear faces, good light, and some depth in the scene animates most beautifully. If you do not have the right photo yet, the AI engagement photo studio can make one first; the two tools are designed to feed each other.

About the save-the-date video maker

A save-the-date has one job — make the date unforgettable — and motion does that job better than paper. WedGenie's save-the-date maker starts from a single photo of the two of you (a real one, or one made with the AI engagement photo studio) and brings it to life as a short animated clip, closing on an end-card with your names and your date set in real typography. That last detail matters: like everything WedGenie prints or renders, your names and date are never drawn by an image model — they are set in actual typefaces on the end-card, so the one piece of information the video exists to deliver is always crisp and correct. The result is a file made for the ways people actually announce now: the group chat, the story post, the wedding website header.

✓Motion gets replayed; paper gets filed
✓Names and date always crisp — real typography
