Digital Invite and RSVP are more popular than ever before. In fact, the majority of brides and grooms are now using this technology to communicate with their wedding guests. Here are five key reasons why you should do the same:
1) Saves time & money
Digital invites take less time to plan and produce than traditional ones. Your invitations go straight from the designer into the digital invitation (and RSVP) system, where all of your guests can access them online or receive a PDF that they can forward to other wedding guests. Don’t worry about postage costs either — no one needs to mail out paper invites!
2) Increases RSVPs
A digital invite and RSVP help planners collect more accurate data, making planning much easier. Your guests can simply log in with their email address and click the response they would like to make; it’s that easy! And because your guests receive an email confirmation, you will be able to see who is attending your event in real-time without having to wait for envelopes to come back in the mail.
3) Increases engagement
It’s very rare today that someone would print out a physical invitation after receiving one online, so printing costs are saved when sending digital invites and RSVPs. This means you can reuse or recycle them after your event is done. You also don’t have to worry about running out of invitations either. With digital invites and RSVPs, every guest can be invited at once.
4) Reduces waste
Sending out traditional paper invitations is obviously a huge waste of resources. Every year, billions of trees are cut down for this purpose alone. Most brides try to offset their carbon emissions by using recycled products, but it’s the carbon emissions from shipping that really make a big impact. Digital invites help to reduce your carbon footprint so you can feel good about helping the environment while planning your special day!
5) Increases convenience
A great benefit to sending digital invites is how convenient they are for both you and your guests. Ask any busy bride or groom if they have time after work to envelopes, address them, and mail them out; they’ll likely be exhausted by the thought of it (and probably too tired even to send out an invite)! With digital invites, you can enter all of your guest information into a universal system, and they are on their way! Oh, and don’t forget that email confirmations come instantly, meaning there’s no waiting for snail mail.
In conclusion, you are sending digital invites and RSVPs is simply a modern way to do things. Not only are they more cost-efficient, but it takes much less time to receive responses back. No matter what your reason for deciding to avoid traditional invitations is, remember that there are many other options available.
