Holy Rsvp's Batman!

EmAbrams, on May 31, 2019 at 1:25 PM Posted in Planning 0 6

Hi all! I don't post on here much but I just had to share. I am going to start out by saying that there is very little about our wedding that is actually traditional. Both FH and I have been married before so this is our second go round. We originally wanted an extremely small ceremony but with the love and support from friends and family we have watched it grow larger and larger, we finally settled on a brunch style wedding, at our local church where we can have the ceremony and reception all in one building.

With that being said, we decided to cut costs and use "Evites" for our wedding invitations, they are totally free btw. Because we are getting married on a holiday weekend I wanted to get them out sooner rather than later. Last night FH and I finished compiling our guest list (I am certain we forgot some people) but at least they can be easily added. Any how, we sat at the table together last night, closed our eyes and hit the "send" button!! Within an hour we had 79 yes's, 2 maybe's and zero no's! Holy cow! Ever since last night I have watched the number grow. I knew it was going to be a large wedding once we finally agreed to the idea, I just didn't expect so many people to respond so fast.

Just a side note, I absolutely love how easy the evites were to make and distribute. If you are on a budget and tradition doesn't mean all that much to you I highly recommend!!

    So much stuff is done online now, so why not rsvps? Glad the evites made your rsvps go smoother!

    I didn't dawn on me until after we hit send that this cuts down on the waiting period. No waiting for the snail mail to arrive with answers! Not to take away from the beautiful possibilities when you actually purchase invites. Smiley smile

    We used e-vites as well. Completely free through our wedding website. It was great! I loved the process of making them and loved that I could send them out. I was also able to have my wedding party use the website to send out invites to all of the events. No costs, streamlined communication, and no waste!

    I clicked on this thread because the title had batman in it and i am a huge batman fan ahaha but on a side note, i agree with the evite thing. i used it for my rehearsal dinner and bridal shower and not my wedding, but it is a good idea for others to do. it's cool your rsvps have been coming in hot!
