Over the last few years the world of online wedding stationery has come on leaps and bounds, and online wedding invitations are easily as stylish as their printed sisters. Most importantly, they're just as effective at building anticipation for your big day. You can get all kinds of digital wedding invitations and designs, from enchanting florals to pared-back minimalism, as well as traditional styles.

Digital wedding invites are practical as well as pretty. Firstly, they'll save you money, giving your wedding budget a boost. Many companies offer automatic RSVP tracking, and as you're paperless, you won't have to worry about addressing endless envelopes and working out the postage. Going digital with your invitations is also eco-friendly, helping you make your day more sustainable.

Are Digital Wedding Invitations Tacky?

Absolutely not! The quality of the best wedding e-vite designs is undeniable. What's more, many companies have developed the guest experience to make reading digital invites feel special. It doesn't have to be as simple as opening an email - it can be clicking on a link to see a virtual envelope addressed individually and watch the invitation emerge.

One thing to consider is that some of your less tech-savvy guests may not have an email account - sorry, but we're looking at you, grandad. If that's the case, we'd suggest using a downloadable wedding invitation template and printing as many as you need for those guests.

What Wording Do You Use for Digital Wedding Invitations?

It's pretty much the same as for printed wedding invitations - you need to start by deciding whether you want to go formal and traditional or informal and fun.

The most traditional invitations come from the bride's parents, such as: Mr & Mrs Tom Jones request the pleasure of your company at the marriage of their daughter Sasha Jones to Owen Hughes at Asylum Chapel, London, on 14th September 2021 at two o'clock, and afterwards at AMP Studios.

But you can make your wedding invitation wording your own by including both sets of parents, step-parents, or choosing to not include them at all and just having your own names on there.

Of course you can jazz things up with more informal or funny language - just remember to keep information to a minimum on the wedding e-vites themselves, and direct guests to your wedding website for further information.

How To Make a Digital Wedding Invitation?

There are three main options. You can create your own for free using a graphic design website such as Canva, then email the finished wedding e-vite to your guests. The advantage of this is that there are simple templates you can customise and it's free.

For around £10, you can also buy downloadable wedding invitation templates from sites like Etsy, which you edit yourselves. These can often be formatted to be sent as emails or text messages. You can also use a specialist wedding invitation website. Some of them have free templates, but even if you do have to pay, the cost is still smaller than for printed invitations.

You'll also get access to beautiful, professional designs, as well as, in some cases, stress-reducing services such as previews you can check and RSVP tracking.

Of course, you don't have to go entirely paperless at your wedding if you don't want to. To decorate the table and keep guests in the know, these are our favourite place card ideas.

How To Send Digital Wedding Invitations?

A popular way to send digital wedding invitations is over email. Here you'll have all the contact details for all your friends and family - from there, it's as easy as attaching your invite and pressing send.
