For wedding planners on a tight budget using emails to send wedding invitations is a great way to cut costs and a bit of a time saver. Having to produce hundreds of standard wedding invitations can be a time consuming activity, at least with email wedding invitations you can copy and paste the template and simply click to send.

Why email wedding invitations

Ten years ago, i wouldn't ever recommend relying purely on emails to invite your guests to your wedding. Today, it's a different story, practically everyone has an email address, which gives you the perfect opportunity to save a little bit of money. You know the best part about email wedding invites? it's free.

email designs for wedding invites

Yeah, you might have to pay for an original design (email template) but just because your cutting corners doesn't mean your invites should lack imagination and strong presentation. Wedding invitation software allows you to create stunning invitations, customaziable with your wedding theme, why not add some pictures of the destination or the happy couple? There's no limitation to the creativity.

It's not always perfect

Emailing wedding invitations is definitely a great idea for saving a few pennies, but at what cost? You can't guarantee people will check their email addresses and theirs no real way of telling if they have abandoned that address and started a new email (because of massive amounts of spam this has been quite common), people don't change their address too often, changing email addresses if a different story.

Realistically, you should send email wedding invitations out early enough to send regular postal invitations to those people who haven't got back to you yet. I know it's a pain, but if a good number of guests get back to you via email, you can save a couple of hundred bucks on fancy paper invites.

You can really ride the technology band wagon and set up a mini website where people can get in contact with you, leave a message and get directions to the event. Of course, if you struggle to even do the basic tasks on your computer it's going to be require more time than it's worth setting up something like this, a good idea for those already in the know how. Anyway, there's loads of great software online to send emails, go check out some of the great services online today.
