An Inviting Proposition

Weddings are so steeped in tradition that (gasp!) electronic invitations have pretty much been seen as a no no. But, with the advent of sites like Pingg.com, more brides are getting on the evite bandwagon. I checked out the Pinng gallery and it’s full of cute invitation designs. One design that really stood out to me had an all white background with an image of a white orchid with spring green text—very simple and elegant. You can have their design team create a custom invitation, or you can upload a picture of you and your fiancé for a sweet photo invite! I like it because it gives you all the control (DIY brides will love it), it’s fun, and it’s also really easy. Another perk: creating an invitation is completely free!

That said, as a guest of a wedding, I still think it’s nice—and so special—to go to your mailbox and pull out a pretty envelope (a.k.a. one that doesn’t resemble a credit car bill) with a wedding invitation inside. But it might work for an informal shower or engagement party. So I'm wondering, what are your thoughts? Are online invites up and coming or are they a little impersonal?
