Is it ok to include our wedding website at the bottom of our wedding invitations?

We are hoping to avoid all those extra accommodation cards, reception cards etc. with our invites. Is it tacky or too informal to include our wedding website in small print at the bottom of the invitation?

    Websites do not belong on formal wedding invitations.  Why not post your text and we can check it.  We used a small business card from Vistaprint with website and hotel information.
    Why?  The OP isn't concerned with the wording of her invitation.  She was interested in whether or not to include her website.

    To that question, I think you can include the URL on an insert.

    Because if she thinks it is proper to put her website on the invitation, there might be other, more important errors.  I like to help.

    It's not really "help" when it's unsolicited though...it becomes "meddling" at that point.  There might be other errors in the wording, but if she didn't ask us for her help, it's really none of our business.

    Sure. I moved house yesterday, after 4 hours sleep and didn't get to eat much, so I'm feeling the effects of that today. My apologies, I don't mean to be grouchy and I'm sorry that I apparently came off that way. All I meant was that our help was asked for about a specific, limited invitation-related matter, not the whole text, so asking to see the whole thing and assuming it might have errors when that's not necessarily the case begs the question as to whether or not we're being nosy and making inappropriate assumptions. If the OP wants to share the rest of the text of her invitation, more power to her, but I'd prefer not to make the assumption that it contains further errors.

    Ah!  Now I understand.  Yes, moving is one of the worst experiences you can have.  I am determined to die in this house because I don't want to have to move again.  Forgiven!

    I always encourage people to post their text.  There have been plenty of tearful brides who wished that they had done this before they ordered, only to find out from their FMIL that there were mistakes that could have been caught.  I will continue to encourage posting text before ordering.

    I hope you get rested up for the weekend.  Moving sucks.

    Thanks.  I mentioned this in another thread where the subject came up as well.  Hopefully I'll finish the move in the next week or so, since it's not complete yet.

    I think everyone should post their invitation wording in case there is a mistake somewhere.  As an example, one user (I can't remember who) made all her invites up only to figure out afterwards that a word was spelt wrong.

    On a formal invite, I wouldn't include the website and would instead print it on a separate card/insert etc. but if your invite isn't very formal I wouldn't mind seeing it at the bottom left corner or printed on the reverse of the paper.

    We actually ended up going with a design from weddingpaperdivas.com. On the back of the invite we were able to include an engagement photo and had the website printed underneath it. The front was formal and the back less formal. They turned out great and everyone loves them.

    You may want to block out your wedding website from your above picture for privacy reasons :)
