Invitation Inserts - RSVP Two Ways

Invitation Inserts - RSVP


Our RSVP cards were postcards. It saved us money on stamps for them as well as on the weight of the actual invitations. Two got lost in the mail, but the rest arrived no problem.

One of the coolest things we did was create an online RSVP. I searched and searched for a "widget" or "doodle" or whatever the things are called you can insert into blogs, but couldn't find one that would create a form to collect information.

We used surveymonkey.com to create a free survey and on our blog we linked to it. The data that was entered by our guests was then accessible in a spreadsheet for us to sort and look at. The majority of people used our surveymonkey survey and it was a great way to collect email addresses, song requests (which were a HIT on the dance floor), and to make sure we were spelling names correctly. The only bummer with survey monkey was that they don't email you when new people have responded to your survey, so we had to keep checking back.
