INVITATION WAREHOUSE: Virtual Weddings

According to Huffington Post, the average wedding can cost upward of $31,0001. For some, that figure can be disheartening and discouraging. It can even convince most that they can’t afford to get married. It’s not that you can’t afford to get married, you can’t afford the wedding. But perhaps there is something that you can do to offset the cost. Maybe you should consider a virtual wedding.

A virtual wedding is one that’s done online. Now don’t get all in a huff. You’re not going to get married online. This is only for those guests that can’t attend your wedding. So that their not left out of the festivities, they can stream it online and here’s how;

Depending upon the quality you want, you could snag a package for as little as nothing! Another way would be to allow that tech savvy friend to Periscope the event. Talk about a frenzy! Yes! You could Periscope your wedding for all to see from your phone. Well, not your phone but a friends phone. And just think of the money you’re saving.

No costs per plate, the wedding cake wouldn’t have to be as large and the favors wouldn’t be as expensive. When you think about it; it’s a win-win-win!

Now there is a catch. Those guests weren’t able to attend should receive a physical invitation; complete with a love note that we discussed in ‘140 Character Memories’. But you definitely will want to make it longer than 140 characters because you really need to express how you understand their inability to make it to your wedding. Shower them with kind words and include the specifics of your future Periscoped, UStream or LiveStream wedding extravaganza!

Here’s an invite that’s sure to get your virtual juices going;
