YOU'RE INVITED! (to share your green ideas about invitations)

This post is all about invitations. To make mine green, I made a piece of artwork that was relevant to my Torah portion and scanned it, added the text and sent it to our friends and family as a PDF attachment to an email. In the email we gave all the details about hotel reservations and the weekend schedule.

I understand that the idea of an emailed invitation could be viewed as impersonal or even a rude way of addressing people, but we made it special by using original artwork and explained the green reasons behind it. In the end, people seemed to really like it. We saved some money on stamps and another upside was instant RSVPs!!

Please post your thoughts and feelings on whether it is or is not acceptable to use electronic invitations and why. Also if you have other ideas for green invitations, please share them.
