Whether it’s a beautiful card or wedding invitation, it is sure to bring a smile to your face. It brings the knowledge that someone cares enough about you to take the time to pick out and mail a special message to you. In conclusion – Think about picking up your mail, there’s a bright coloured envelope among the bills, and instantly your day is brighter.

I discuss the benefits and shortcomings below. Take a look at some of the pros and cons to using paperless or email wedding invitations.

I did some more research and found this article by Huff Posts Weddings interesting. with the change in times, many couples are creating wedding website’s with all the wedding information, which even allows their guests to rsvp on the website.many engaged couples are booking their venue a year in advance, so whether it is a destination wedding or not, they are contacting guests ahead of time to find out rsvp information.Some couples don’t want to take the time to create custom invites – its short and sweet to email people versus looking up addresses and mailing invitations.maybe theses brides just need to be educated about the budget-friendly invitations I create (thus they can have their cake and eat it too).This really made me think “Why is it not important to them?”. As a Graphic Designer and Stationery Owner I was surprised! These women had fairly decent budgets for their wedding (roughly $25,000), yet decided not to spend much on wedding stationery!Īs a Graphic Designer I know the importance of setting the stage for an event, especially your wedding. There were many vendor questions regarding budget, decision making, and importance of certain vendors.Īt this meeting I asked the brides if wedding stationery was important to them, and most said “No”. This particular meeting was a bridal panel, where many different types of brides were recently or soon to be married. It helps us network, learn new business practices and keeps us in touch with our wedding clientele. Many vendors in the wedding industry in Calgary are a part of this association. I was recently shocked when attending a meeting as a “Calgary Bridal Association” member.
