I guess I'm old school, but I love invitations especially for milestone events. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-send-out-actual-invitations#post-521257 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 11:12:53 +0000 mrsjazz 521257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm trying to decide what to do. Her 1st birthday party will be intimate with mainly family. I am getting a file from Etsy with the invite for $15 and I could just send it to the invite list and print out 1 or 2 copies for her scrapbook or print the invites. I do know that our family likes to save anything with her photo on it so I'm not sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-send-out-actual-invitations#post-521256 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 11:12:19 +0000 Mrsbells 521256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes if I host an event I do send out invites </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-send-out-actual-invitations#post-521249 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 11:10:54 +0000 BananaPancakes 521249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I send them out for everything we do. I just really love invitations. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-send-out-actual-invitations#post-521239 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 11:09:18 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 521239@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Invites are great mementos, I plan on sending invites for VIPs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-send-out-actual-invitations#post-521164 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 10:52:15 +0000 autumnlove 521164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't do them because it was just family. I will definitely do them when I invite friends for LO's second bday! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-send-out-actual-invitations#post-521158 Wed, 23 Jan 2013 10:50:49 +0000 BelugaBean 521158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was just wondering if it was becoming more and more common not to send out actual invitations. I plan to send them out for LO's first birthday for, if nothing else, an item for her scrapbook. Most people, I've noticed, are just doing Facebook invitations now (and by word of mouth for those who don't have Facebook). I know it's more cost effective, and I don't have an issue with it, I was just wondering if a lot of people were doing this now. </p> <p>We were possibly going to do a Facebook event to get an idea of how many people are coming but I still want an actual invtation for her. </p> <p>Did you/are you sending out actual invitations? </p>
