Invite suite

Hi Ladies,
I had a question about your wedding invite suite.  Are you including a map with your invite or just the address to the venue(s)?  We are going back and forth about printing them and how many people actually use them or just print/find their own directions with gps or mapquest/google maps.

Thanks ladies!

    With the way technology has surpassed these days, we opted not to include directions. Now a days, people have navigation in their phone or their car. Best bet is they can always google it or ask for directions.

    we included a map (and put directions on our website) but our map was different than the traditional map. We got a lot of compliments on it!

    We didn't include the directions. Instead we emailed them to everyone.  It was cheaper and easier.

    I am putting the address on a card, and a link to our wedding website on the other side of the card, I put directions up there JIC, but I think most people use GPS or google their directions first.

    We have the directions on the wedding website. The wedding channel websites even have a google maps integrated into the website with little markers showing where the ceremony and reception are. I figured that I'd save on the costs of printing and just leave it all electronic.

    I included maps with my invitations, since most of my guests are from out of state.  I used scribblemaps.com to create three maps of different areas in Chicago, and on them I put places that we like to eat/visit and tourist spots.  On the map in our wedding area, I put two special markers for the ceremony and reception places.  I used vista print to get them printed, and they came out amazing.
