The holidays are a very popular time for couples to get engaged. With that in mind, we’ve been working with our designers to create an extensive collection of Save the Date announcements that feature you and your fiancé. It’s increasingly en vogue (ooh la la!) to send engagement announcements and save-the-dates that include images. Now you can easily share our beautiful designs and your own style with friends and family to let them mark that very special date.

Tiffany and David were married in May at the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore. They made their wedding extra special by personalizing the tiniest details and using their own creativity to coordinate and embellish in a way we’ve never seen! We were so inspired by their custom Greenvelope invitations, with engagement and wedding details and photography, that we  had to interview the happy couple to get the inside scoop. Afterall, “the details are what truly make a unique event.”

We are learning that online wedding invitations are moving into the 21st century and finding a place in modern etiquette rules.

We can learn quickly (within minutes thanks to Facebook) of a friend’s engagement. Sending invitations through the mail can create a margin for a delayed response if people move, or the invitation is returned to sender. Delays can make it difficult to have time for the guests to make travel plans with seat availability, price of tickets, requesting time off work, etc.

Since many of us are online throughout the day, it is unlikely to miss critical information. There seems to be a misguided assumption that online communication is exclusively for informal contact/events. On the contrary, beautiful sophisticated invitations are at your fingertips without delay, postage costs and a high price tag.

Check out the new online etiquette-pedia (EmilyPost.com), to reflect what is appropriate for online wedding mailings.

Online invitations are not the way of the future, they are the now!!
