Must I Print Wedding Invitation Cards ? by pastorking(m): 9:32pm On Feb 08, 2008
My wedding is coming up by April and I have designed this website http://www.ewedding.com/sites/queen for my wedding invitation. But there is so much presure from my family, my inlaws, and even my fiancee that we must print Wedding Cards. Its not that I cannot afford it, but is it really a amust that there must be cards?

there must be an invitation card to go along with the wedding ceremony as our custom demands. It adds flavour and humour to the nuptual bliss. You can print a limited quantity so as to avoid wastage and printing it will equally enlighten some who may come across it to attend without formal invitation.
Congratulations in advance!!!

This is anew one o.
Why do u wanna mail people invites via the computer.

Maybe u could text them the invites via their fones.

Why dont u just get some fancy paper and print it from ur own printer?

Try go techko, Use text Messages as much as possible. Send this to friends, then send cards to the Papas and mamas.

Happy Married Life Ahead

my brofer,

you dont need any such thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

all you need is 2 banners!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!10ft*3ft

one should be at the entrance of the street leading to your house, the other should be at your father in-law's place, at least everybody can see that one.

i hope this helps. grin grin grin grin grin

It is your decision. You don't have to print wedding invitation cards.

My relatives bought 250 sheets of pre-printed custom wedding invitation cards from the office supply store using Microsoft Word and their printer in order to tear cards, fold them and send by mail. Cheaper than real professional printing shop or wedding planner's engraved wedding package.

@ poster,

to be serious with you, you need to print a few atleast, unless everyone coming are your age group, i guess our fathers would expect cards because i wonder how many of them have access to the internet, even if they do, the card thing will make more sense to them, you could be selective in your card distribution and use other means to get across to close friends and colleagues.

i hope this helps.

Poster, not necesarilly to have cards but because people got so use to receiving cards. But Some hollywood stars these days uses Text messaging via HP.

and if you're inviting the older people whom are not literate to computers, than they wont know about this your wedding invitation. But if you are sure that all you guest are ok with the computer, than you could tell your parents that you are supporting earth hour and that you are saving paper to savve trees.
Re: Must I Print Wedding Invitation Cards ? by najayi: 5:53pm On Dec 07, 2009
Hi, it is better for you to text message, e-mail, and send normal invitation cards. Not everybody can read, or have time to check their messages., but everybody will receive the invitation cards. Try also to call important people like elderly people, may be your pastors, your parents friends, your aunties, etc to show sign of respect for the elders.
God bless you and enjoy yourself.
Najayi.

No, you don't have to print wedding invitation cards if you don't want to. You can choose to send digital invitations instead. There are many websites that offer free or paid digital invitation templates that you can use like "Accuxel, Paperless Post, Greenvelope, or Canva". You can also create your own digital invitation using a design program like Photoshop or Illustrator. If you decide to go the digital route, just make sure to include all the important details like the date, time, and location of the event so guests can easily RSVP.

If you're not sure how to create a digital invitation, there are plenty of tutorials online that can help you out.

However, as a Nigerian, we are not that fully submerged into digital doings yet so you have to print your wedding invitations if you are planning to have your wedding here in Nigeria.

Our culture has been to receive a printed physical hard copy of an invitation which we can save as a keepsake and a symbol that you respect and regard your people.

It will be quite difficult to change this habit and going digital might not be the best idea if you want to avoid any drama or misunderstanding.

So, in conclusion, you don't have to print wedding invitation cards if you don't want to but it is still the norm in Nigeria to do so.

This is something you should keep in mind when making your decision.

If you need somewhere to design your wedding invitations online digitally or want it printed in hard copy here in Nigeria without messing us quality and timeline, do check out https://accuxel.com/wedding-invitation-card-design-printing/
