Post Card RSVPs
A few weeks ago while working on the design for a lovely wedding next year, I had a little idea that I wanted to share. We work with lots of couples who have international roots and subsequently are always looking for new ways to reflect this within a wedding. For this particular wedding, I suggested asking guests to RSVP using a postcard from their locality and to include a note on how they know the couple or a great memory they have from spending time with them. These postcards could then be displayed at the wedding (we like washing line style, similar to the picture below) and thus act as some entertainment during the reception.

What a great idea.
My family is spread all over the world, as is my wifes. I make a point of explaining to them that I offer a free online gallery service so that their friends from all over the world can share in their happiness.
Having something like this works in the opposite direction – it’s a tangible connection from the bride and grooms friends to them (if they couldn’t make it in person).
