subject: Could sending email wedding invitations be safer? [print this page] Preparing for their big day is one of the most important things many couples do and often they want all aspects of their nuptial celebrations to be perfect.
However, certain elements of the plans are subject to risk. For example, when people send out wedding invitations by traditional mail, there is a possibility they will get lost.
For this reason, opting for email wedding invitations could be a safer option and may become more popular with soon-to-be bride and grooms around the world.
One example of a woman who fears the hard work on her wedding invitations, not to mention the money she spent on them, may have gone to waste is Jade Powell.
According to reports on WKRC TV Cincinnati, she dispatched around 120 such invites earlier this year and only around ten people received them during the first two weeks.
In a bid to find out what happened to the mail she sent, she went to the post office where she had dropped them off.
Commenting on the response she got from a worker there, she said: "He gave us a number to call and we called the number and they were not helpful at all either and I was calling my mum getting a little bit worried about it."
It transpired there was a problem with the sorting machines. Officials revealed that the devices have readers which find it hard to analyse dark or black envelopes.
Also, embellishments such as ribbons can mean the envelopes containing the invites are not flat and this may result in problems.
Since the postal service was alerted, more of Ms Powell's mail has been delivered to the appropriate addresses.
However, not all have arrived, which could result in confusion and is bound to lead to extra work on the part of the couple.
Those who choose to use email wedding invitations do not have to concern themselves with such problems, as the process does not rely on postal services.
