Five Reasons To Mail Online Wedding Invitations
Choosing the right wedding invitation is extremely important. The marriage invitation is the first introduction to the couple that people will have. Invitations must set the feeling for your wedding. They should communicate your style and your love. So what can online wedding invitations offer that paper invitation lacks? Is there a convincing argument to RSVP online as a complement or on its own? Here are five first-rate reasons to use an email wedding invitations.
Money-
The average couple in the US spends $20,398 on their marriage ceremony. It is a happy occasion and deserves thought and money. Marriage experts say that you ought to plan on spending 5-10% of your wedding budget on invitations. That put the cost of invitations between $1000 and $2000. Without sacrificing the elegance, paperless wedding invitations can save you money. The cost of RSVP email is a tiny proportion of traditional invitation which makes them great supplements too, see recent comments at our blog wedding invitations. Stylish, personalized eco friendly wedding invitations cost less than $40.
Ease and Time
Sending an paperless wedding invitations can save you a huge amount of time. Most can be designed, created and sent in a couple of hours. Look for email RSVP that are easy to build in a few simple steps, without sacrificing the elegance or individual touch that each couple wants. One bride I talked to told me that she spent 2 weeks making and addressing her own paper invitations. The invitations were beautiful. She said that she was sad to know that for many recipients, it would be something that would not be appreciated for the amount of time and creativity spent. I asked if she could start over again and if she would do something different?
Her answer was a hesitant no.
Pictures
One of my favorite things about receiving a wedding invitation is to see pictures of the couple. A good number invitations have one picture built-in; some have as many as 4 or 5. Imagine receiving a online wedding RSVP with 20 pictures of the pair along with pictures from their life, courtship and engagement. With online wedding invitations by email this is possible. Pictures really speak about your individuality, your connection and your love.

Environment
Send less paper and supplement with photo wedding invitations by email. Paper invitations are sent, viewed and then thrown away. Less than 5% of your guests will collect your invitation after the wedding date. Compare that to RSVP email. No paper used, no paper wasted. Still invitations on recycled paper have to be mailed. The most eco friendly announcements are RSVP online. Reduce the amount that traditional announcements create and use paperless wedding invitations as a eco friendly option. If you are interested in having a eco friendly wedding, online wedding RSVP is the only choice.
You’re Already Online
I asked a friend of mine if he and his fiancé would consider using photo wedding invitations by email instead of the traditional invitations. He replied that the email invitation felt too relaxed, lacked class and didn’t represent his wedding well. I showed him some samples. He was impressed and talked to his fiancé, but said that they decided to go the traditional way. Then I started to watch the irony unfold. Invitations to his bachelor party were posted on his Facebook account (I heard that she did the same for a bridal shower). Then a couple of days before the wedding, his Facebook status was a blanket invitation to the reception with the address. I never mentioned it to him because I did not want to embarrass him or make an uncomfortable situation, but I did wonder why email invitations were too informal, but Facebook was okay. Our social culture is increasingly informal, but traditionally, weddings are very formal events. We are comfortable on Facebook, MySpace and Twitter, but are our intended guests? A number of guest will still need a traditional invitation, while others are all right with an eVite. Don’t hesitate to split your list. Some of your friends are going to love your email wedding invitations. You are already on Facebook, MySpace and Twitter, these friends will love your online invitations.
