Most couples who are getting married will let people know by sending out traditional wedding announcements bearing the information regarding the wedding invitation. Some modern couples will choose to use contemporary wedding invitations or DIY wedding invitations to bring their announcements more up-to-date. But if you really want to be a modern couple then you should skip the wedding invitations and go with a wedding website instead.

The wedding website is a domain that you get which provides all of the information that you want people who are invited to the wedding to know. It has the time and place of the wedding and reception. And you can even add a section of the website where people can gift you with wedding presents or cash gifts towards the wedding.

To let people know about the wedding website (and therefore to invite them to the wedding) you would send out an email invitation with the URL. They can also use this URL to upload their own photos of the wedding to the site after the event is done and to see any photos that you have posted there. If you think that this sounds a little bit too modern, you might want to use traditional wedding invitations but to simplify them with the URL of the site that has the information it, combining both modern and traditional wedding announcement methods.
