The couple agreed that using online invitations helped to minimize the stress of managing international RSVPs, since they were already doing so much management across seas to prepare while still in the UK. That being said, these two did an amazing job utilizing their contacts in the area to create a serene and joyous celebration for their matrimony and joining of two families.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-130\" src=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/maine-wedding-party.png\" alt=\"maine-wedding-party\" width=\"850\" height=\"357\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/maine-wedding-party.png 850w, https:\/\/www.greenvelope.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/maine-wedding-party-300x126.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The event was held at two venues.
