Rehearsal Dinner Brunch Invites

in Wedding Invitations & Paper
Our invitations have already gone out way in advance because venue needed head count 2 months ahead of time and we just firmed up our plan for the rehearsal dinner and brunch. The info for both are on our wedding website and we did include an insert with the site in the invitation. That said, there are 3 meal options for the rehearsal dinner and we need to tell the restaurant what people want in advance.

So, the question is: do we send paper invites to the rehearsal dinner and another one to the brunch? Or just to the dinner and brunch by WOM / website? If any of you have seen an invite that kills two birds with one stone and invites folks to both dinner and brunch please send me some links because that seems like it would be most ideal! I can't seem to find them anywhere.

Thank you!

Sorry for the formatting, I'm posting from my phone.

    If the restaurant needs to know in advance who wants what, then I would do the paper invite, so people can put it on their fridge and remember to tell you. People often forget to check websites, or they're on their phones and it's super small, or their computer is dead, or they don't own a computer or many other circumstances. My aunt doesn't own a computer, never has, never will so for someone like her looking for the info would mean she would have to borrow someone else's computer or go to the library.

    WOM can be hard too b/c people will often forget and it can be hard to get in touch with certain people sometimes.

    I think a paper invite is best to ensure everyone who is invited a) gets one and b) that they reply in a timely manner so you can let the restaurant know. WOM is often not very reliable way to get info out.
