Save-The-Date Ecards – Are You Ready to Go Paperless?

As a celebration to this year Earth’s Day, I have decided to write a bit about a question that has been raised to me quite a few times recently: are electronic Save-The-Date cards acceptable? Our eco-friendly and budget brides are very supportive of this idea as it’s obviously cheaper, saves paper, saves postage and you receive the RSVPs quicker. The additional statistics from e-Save the date cards also helps keeping tracking on the head counts more easily.

Some eco-friendly brides even go totally paperless with all save-the-date ecards and e-invites. However the more common practice is still sending save-the-date ecards a few months in advance and official invites by postal mail afterwards. I guess there is no one agreed way to do this, it all depends on your own assessment. The degree of open-mindedness and technology forwardness of your guests will decide how far can you go on the paperless path.
