Paper RSVP vs Online RSVP

We are doing on-line only. But a lot of it depends on your guests-are they tech savvy? There is only one person that is not tech savvy invited to our wedding (my FFIL) but we know he's coming.

I want to do online only but I feel a few of my guests may find it harder to RSVP online so I will be ordering a few RSVP cards for them. Everybody else will be RSVPing online.

I sent everyone paper RSVPs (with a stamped return envelope) with the invitations, and also gave the option for guests to RSVP online through our WW website. With the exception of 2 people, everyone - young and old - has mailed in their RSVP card. Online RSVP is definitely not necessary if you are already sending the traditional paper ones.

Almost all will be email RSVP's. I'm on the fence about a wedding website.

We have a few elderly people and a couple others who we thought would need paper RSVPs so I bought card stock and will just print some for those few people. It's going to save me a ton of money.

I did online only. Everything I've read or heard says that is you do both, people will use paper. If you do online only, it goes fine. I agree it depends on your crowd though.

I'm doing online and paper. Most of my guest will be RSVPing by emailing me at a email address I created just for the wedding but we do have a few people that we will be sending Paper RSVP cards and envelopes to.

I was going to use the WW website RSVP but my FH has a huge family and I didn't add every last one of their names to it I only add the head of the household.

We're doing online and phone (for people who hate the internet). We wouldn't mind paper, but it's really not necessary, most of our guests are tech savvy, and we don't want to spend lots of extra money on inserts and postage. Additionally, we want people to use our website for information anyway, so paper RSVP will mean fewer people will check the website.

I have found online RSVP on wedding websites to be hard to use, particularly for non-tech savvy people. I'll probably put my phone number and email address in the bottom left corner of the invitation, since I'm pretty sure everyone can figure out at least one of those

We are doing paper RSVPs. I like the traditional feel of it Not only that, I can already hear the outrage of my mother and aunt if I told them I was doing online RSVPs. Not to mention that many of our guests don't even know how to turn on a computer.

We are all tech savvy so we are allowing phone, internet and email RSVPs We are spending the money we are saving on reception items such as food/music to have more fun. However, we are having a casual reception.

I am contemplating a mix... for those I know will not use the computer they get a response card/ envelope post etc but most everyone else will get the online link.... Not that hard to track I just added a column on my master list.

I am not doing a paper RSVP - We are in close enough contact with the people we will be inviting that they can either go online or call. I will have a sheet to keep track of course but I did not feel it was necessary to blow an additional $40 in postage and waste more paper on a traditional RSVP.

We did email RSVPs. Going through a website would have been too confusing for the older relatives. We gave the option of RSVPing by phone too but only one person has called. Most just emailed.

I did online to save on postage and make it easier for most to RSVP. Our older family members who are not too tech savvy had younger family members (who were maybe driving them to the wedding) RSVP for them. All worked out great!

We are doing online only, I mean it's pretty simple and even my grandma has managed to figure out how to use facebook, so I think she can handle this!

You'll be lucky to get people to do it one way, let alone two.

We did paper. I wanted to keep the cards for sentimental reasons. People wrote us little notes on them too which you just don't get with an online RSVP.

We're only doing the traditional paper invites/rsvps.. I figured we can't cut that out because some of the older people may not be tech savvy and I didn't want to have two different methods of rsvping... If I'm paying the postage for you to mail me an RSVP I don't want that to go to waste lol...

I am keeping traditional with paper invites, but cut the cost a bit by doing a postcard (cheaper + lower postage cost). I love writing a little note on the RSVP card when I send them back for others' weddings and hope people do the same for ours. I would love to make them part of a bigger scrapbook/album.

I told my mom I needed a few family members addresses...she thought I meant email addresses and FLIPPED about how inappropriate it was to send out email invites...so I will be going with traditoinal paper if for no other reason than it keeps mommy quiet. lol

Plus, we only have about 35 invites to send out, so it's not that much.

We are doing paper only. Not all of our guests are in on the whole internet thing. I just think it's easier for the guests to just fill out the paper and stick it in the mail. Also, it's really fun to get something in the mail besides junk and bills.
