Hand delivering wedding invitations?

Chrysta, on February 8, 2020 at 2:14 PM Posted in Planning 1 17
Hi ladies! I was just wondering if any of you had, or will be, hand delivering at least some of your wedding invitations? I will be visiting some out of state family about the time we will be mailing out invites and thought it might be a nice, personal touch to hand deliver them to the relatives I will be seeing.

    I’ll be delivering my coworkers since I see them every day, but everyone else I’ll be mailing!

    Nope. We mailed everyone’s. Even our parents and my bridesmaid who lives across the street. Everyone loves getting fun mail!

    We did personally hand invitations to those we see often. Such as church members.

    We hand delivered the ones we could and mailed the rest. I think hand delivering adds a nice touch, and it’s also great to save on postage

    If I were recieving one, I would be honored to get it in person! I'm going to hand deliver my in- town invites. I don't see the point in paying postage locally when I can just hand it to them.

    FH and I will be hand delivering to those who are local and then mailing the rest to those out of town who we won't be able to see before then.

    That’s awesome! I don’t know why it never occurred to me to do this before, but I am so happy to hear it sounds like people prefer this method!

    So very true! I hadn’t even thought of the savings in postage- which definitely adds up quickly, especially when you add the additional charge for hand cancelling

    I feel the same way- I would definitely feel honored if someone took the time out of their day to hand deliver me an invitation to their wedding. I honestly had never even thought of that possibility before- FH actually mentioned it & I thought dang, that’s awesome! Why hadn’t I thought of that?! LOL

    I love this idea! Had never thought of it before & wanted To make sure it didn’t go against some sort of etiquette I was unaware of. It’s so cool to see how many people are doing it!

    Yea I remember FH and I talking it over before and on the flip side of making it a personal touch, it also saves on postage lol

    My bridal shower is actually during the time where I want to start sending out invites, so I’m thinking of just handing them to guests there. Postage stamps are so expensive, I want to try to save as much money as I can.

    I will be hand deliver them to all my relatives live within 25 miles. They are older folks in the 70s, so they prefer us hand deliver to them. Also save me stamps. Will mail the rest.

    We are mailing out to everyone, with the exception of my FIL's because they made fun of us for mailing them our engagement party invitations, as they live upstairs.
