Hand-delivering invitations vs Mailing

FH and I are just about at budget for our DIY invites. Would it look bad if we hand-delivered the invites to local friends and family to save the money on stamps. I think they are going to be heavy, so I'm not looking forward to that expense. What did you guys spend on mailing your invites?

    I LOVED hand-delivering my local invites. It made it so much more personal handing our friends and family their invite to our wedding

    I'm so glad you asked and that you got those responses! I was wondering too but wasn't sure if it was tacky. I honestly can't see people at work being judgmental, i see them all day every day and they're like my mom in that they'd probably prefer I save the postage $!

    I am hand delivering some of my family members that I see ALL the time, I think it is a waste of money to mail them.

    Everyone who we don't see as often we are mailing along with out of town guests.

    There are many cultures where that's all they do, is hand deliver! I wouldnt even think twice if someone gave me an invite that way! I say go for it!
