A. Wedding Invitations
The current scenario has seen a surge in the demand for E Invitations. Although traditionally printed Invitations are used, E Invitations are being preferred by the younger generations.

C. Save the Date
Announce the date to ensure they keep the date free!

However, most couples use “Save the Date” invites for showing their personality and character. This is different from a formal or informal tone to the wedding. Save the Date can be in the form of normal wedding cards as well as digital invites. But the current trends show that E-Cards are mostly preferred for the “Save the Date” invites.
