What? You sent an e-invite to your wedding?

I have two thoughts about that. First, reliability -- are you certain that everyone you'd send such an invite to would receive them? That they wouldn't get sucked into spam folders? That everyone checks their email regularly?

The other is that paper invitations are just nicer overall. They give a feeling of permanence, are classier, give your loved ones a memento (or at least something to stick on their fridge for a while), etc.

Electronic invitations seem to me to be more emotionally distant, less "real". More suitable for ephemeral, relatively unimportant events.

Never had a wedding, but been to lots of them.

I always found paper invitations annoying. I get so little paper mail I'm barely in the habit of checking the mail box. They seem to sit outside my normal flow of scheduling etc. And sometimes you have this situation where you have been verbally invited but have to wait weeks for the thing to actually show up.

I'd honestly be happier with a calendar invite. And save yourself the money on the paper.

Don't be cheap. Weddings are a special event. I would hate to receive an invite to a wedding in the exact same way I get assaulted with impersonal spam for penis enlargement pills and Bitcoin scams. Up your game and stay classy.
