Facepalm....post-wedding brunch invite?

My invitations have proven to be the bane of my existence. Despite multiple multiple multiple proofs from different people, I'm still finding out things that i missed. Right now, I'm wondering if i need to add an invite card for our post-wedding brunch. We are doing digital RSVPs through our website, and the invite to the brunch is listed there. However, we didn't get an invitation card printed for our paper invites because......well, I'm not sure why, it never came up. What are your thoughts....do people need a paper card letting them know it's happening or is the digital RSVP enough?

I think evites through email or even just a phone call or text is good enough for a brunch the next day but that's just my opinion. It's not a super formal thing.

It's really low-key, not a sit-down brunch or anything. Obviously totally optional, but just an opportunity to say goodbye to people who want to do so, plus provide breakfast.

Time and location is listed on the website when they RSVP. So when someone types in their name to RSVP for the wedding, the different events come up that they're invited to (i.e.: rehearsal dinner, ceremony/reception, post-wedding brunch) with all dates, times, attire, listed.

Also, the paper invitation suite includes invitation card, RSVP card directing guests to website, rehearsal dinner invite card for those who are invited.

We are doing a bunch the next morning. We will be inviting OOT guests only (which is most of our guests), and are doing informal invites- word of mouth and text/call.

We had a welcome dinner and a farewell brunch for all of our guests and did not include separate invites for them. Our info card referred to the wedding website for full information regarding all wedding weekend events.

As long as the website lists it, I think that is fair enough. It doesn't sound formal enough to worry about printing more.

You can do informal word of mouth invites for brunch. Between that and your website you ought to be covered

Are most of your guests staying at a hotel. Do you have a room block set up? If so, you can give little welcome bags with times of the wedding and then mention about the brunch the next day. I've been to several weddings that explain it that way. Also helps save on cost if you're only inviting the people who are staying over instead of everyone
