FINALLY!!! A more cost effective wedding invite option!

The average cost of a wedding in Massachusetts is between $25,000 and $30,000, according to the online Massachusetts Wedding Guide. By now if you’re reading this blog you probably already know that little fact and are in panic mode about how you’ll afford a beautiful wedding without you and your family going completely broke.

Of course we all want it to be a day of fun, and bliss but there has to be a way to have a lovely wedding without spending that down payment you’ve been saving for a house.

And there most certainly is!

Start by taking a look at the little costs that add up.  For example, wedding invitations can cost between $500 and $600 bucks! Think about it, stamps alone could cost $200 to send out invites for 250 guests. Who uses snail mail these days anyway? Its 2014, most people are using email and prefer to receive information this way. So why are people still attached to sending traditional invitations via snail mail and spending a small fortune?

Because until now people haven’t considered E-vites, electronic invitations sent to guests’ preferred emails.

Streamography offers an affordable wedding E-vite solution for a fraction of the price, yet can still be crafted to your specific taste. You can work with a designer to create an interactive invitation that represents you and your partner as well as the atmosphere of your wedding. You’ll find with E-vites that guests will RSPV faster too, giving you more time to plan for other associated costs.

So stop licking those stamps, save that for smooches on the wedding day and check out Streamography’s E-vite wedding invitations.
