Invitations

Sarra, on April 7, 2020 at 8:01 PM Posted in Planning 1 27
Ladies what are your thoughts- I am thinking of skipping the traditional invites and sending out e-invites. Has anyone done this? Were there any obstacles? Any suggested websites? TIA 💋

    I did this. The obstacle is in older folks. I still had to print out invites just for them

    We had a semi-formal wedding so electronic invitations wouldn’t have been appropriate. I think they’re fine for backyard BBQ style weddings, but nothing more formal than that.

    I can see where you are coming from. I like the idea of being able to track responses instead of waiting for an rsvp.

    You can still do online RSVPs with traditional invitations.

    Yeah pretty much everyone since it was the only way to RSVP. We did have to follow up with some people but that’s expected no matter what method of RSVP you use.

    There are all sorts of benefits: able to send and receive rsvps instantly, able to send invites later because weeks aren't needed to send and receive rsvps... Easy to update and resend.... Greenvelope has the best casinos that I've seen for tracking and they are beautiful. You can also download and print. It just works.


    Especially under these circumstances.

    Those were some of my concerns also. I started planning later than most people and with all the craziness I don’t want to have pay for 2 or more rounds of paper invites. Really thinking this is the best option for our wedding!

    If you need to get invitations printed even just a few, I recommend Zazzle!
