You also need to decide about the specific style that your wedding postcard prints should have – are you all for an intricate or a simple yet alluring one?

You can try design forums and blogs from designers – these usually provide a great variety of postcard designs.

Books and magazines are also great sources of wedding card designs.
Ways to Use Wedding Postcards. One wonderful thing about using postcards for your wedding is that you can use them in many ways. The only limit is your imagination and of course, budget. You can use these prints as a save the date cards to send to your friends and relatives to let them know of the big day. Using postcard prints as wedding invitations is also common nowadays. You can even include RSVP cards to be able to have a headcount of your guests.
Aside from invitations, wedding postcards can also be used as printed souvenirs and thank you cards.
