Who's sending wedding invitations to their bridal party/parents? According to etiquette it's the thing to do but surely it's an unnecessary expense? They obviously know they are invited...
Yep! My parents want it as a momento!
It's nice for the memories
Yep - both sets of parents loved them and have put them up!
We are
My bridal party loved it. I even did one to my husband lol xx
We did. We knew our grandparents werent going to make it, too ill to travel, but we still sent them invites. Xxx
I'd send to family and bridal party and email everyone else! Lol. Family are more likely to keep them.
I have to my bridal party but parents will only get them if we have any left over xx
Our parents will only get one if we have any left spare. They are so expensive I can't see the point.
Hi yes they all want an invitation :)
I am, its something for them to keep as well
We did. And to be fair they don't have to be expensive, they are only as expensive as you make them!
we did was only my mum who didnt have one as she made them but we had loads left so ive kept them in a box x
that's a good point actually
following
We sent them anyway incase they wanted to have one
I have, thought it was nice and knew they would all like one and they did xx
My daughters gettin married this year and I've got mine on my mantle piece.
We are planning on sending them so they have a momento and it's just nice for us. I am making ours so it should be slightly cheeper x
Yeah as we are getting married abroad so they need to know where and when. Also a nice keepsake x
Ok. Thank everyone. I hadn't really thought about it being a keepsake. I just thought about framing one did ourselves lol. Good point though x
My daughter is getting married they have sent us an invite
My ex in-laws didn't come to my wedding as they said they didn't get an invite. I would have thought one wasn't necessary. But having one as a keepsake is a lovely idea
I am but I know plenty of people that don't. I think my parents are the ones most likely to keep the invite, so they'll definitely be getting one. I didn't give all my family Save the Dates though.
They may want the invitation as a keepsake x
We didn't just asked people lol
Yep we are. Even tho I agree with the point ha ha.
I wasn't going to but the chap said we should 😂 my daughter keeps bugging me to write out a couple of invatations so I'm going to let her do them. I brought packs of pretty but standard invites from card factory so cost wasn't an issue xx
My mum has helped me make them and I am still sending one to her and my dad! She also made them for my sister's wedding last September and she has kept the one they sent her
My mum said she wanted one as a keepsake and my dad won't see anything wedding related until it's "time" (he wants the surprise) so invited them along with everyone else MIL/FIL and bridesmaid the only bridal party member that didn't get one was my 3 year old daughter
I did but only as they wanted them as keepsakes also! It was only a small extra expense.
I am just because it is nice for them to have that to remember the day.
Yes we are giving invites to all the bridal party. Our children can then keep them in their memory boxes. I am printing my own, so no big expense and not doing RSVP cards, just bridal email and phone number.
I have sent them, only because it's a small wedding and I made the invites myself. You do whatever you feel is right but it's something they can keep
