Do you send save the dates to evening guests?

Evening guests are part of your celebration, so they should receive a save the date just like anyone else. The only exception is if you are still finalising the evening guest list, in which case wait until you are sure. Many couples send save the dates to all guests at once to keep things simple and fair. If you are worried about confusion, you can add a small line on the save the date such as 'Evening celebration to follow' or 'Join us from 7pm' so they know what to expect. This is especially helpful for guests who might assume they are invited to the whole day. Remember that evening guests often need to arrange childcare or transport, so an early heads up is kind. If your evening list is much larger and you are sending invitations later, a save the date still works well. Just make sure your wording is clear so no one feels misled. The goal is to make every guest feel valued, regardless of when they join you.
