Choosing between digital and paper invitations comes down to your event, your budget and your guests. Here is an honest comparison.
Cost
Paper invitations add up quickly: design, printing, envelopes and postage for every guest. A digital invitation is a flat price per event, no matter how many people you invite.
Speed
Digital invitations are ready in minutes and arrive instantly by text or email. Paper takes days or weeks to design, print and mail.
RSVPs
With paper, replies come back by mail, call or text and you track them by hand. Digital invitations collect answers online and show you a live guest list.
Flexibility
If the venue or time changes, you can edit a digital invitation and everyone sees the update. A paper card has to be reprinted and resent.
Etiquette
Digital invitations are widely accepted today, especially for birthdays, baby showers, casual weddings and corporate events. For very formal occasions, many hosts send a printed card to close family and a digital invitation to everyone else.
The best of both worlds
Add a QR code to a printed card. Guests get the keepsake and you get real-time RSVPs and easy updates.
