{Sponsor Intro} Glö: Modern-Minded Wedding Invitations
If you’re planning a wedding, you probably have a long list of daunting tasks… including, no doubt, your invitations. That’s a pretty crucial element, eh? We all want the perfect invite, but the cost and time taken to prepare them can be pretty overwhelming. Besides the cost of stationary, you also have to budget in postage, and then the time to stuff and label every invite. That’s both time and paper consuming work, yo! But fear not, there’s a cost cutting and paper cut-less option out there…
Here’s a stylish way to save time, money and be kind to the planet with your invites. Glö is a new company with a snazzy take on e-vitations. Glö provides a solution for couples seeking the sophistication of paper invitations, the convenience and eco-friendliness of online technology, with a touch of wow-factor for doing something different.
Your guest is greeted by a traditional-style envelope…
You know Glö stands behind their product, because it was created for the founders’ own wedding. As Glö’s co-founder Taryn says, “The idea of collecting everyone’s mailing addresses and coordinating all of those RSVPs by hand just didn’t make sense to us in this day and age. We wanted to send online invitations, but couldn’t find anything that looked sophisticated enough for a wedding, plus had the website and RSVP functionality we needed, and thus Glö was born.”
Opening up to a classy invite of your own design or a selected one…
Glö has tons of options for invite styles that link your guests directly to a matching website, giving them the full 411 on your wedding. One of our favorite options that Glö provides is that you can even import your own design! That means you can still rock your DIY style with out having to spend tons of DIY time.
And the invite links directly to your matching website for the full skinny on your big day.
Style, without taking a lot of paper out of the bank, or throwing a lot of paper in the trash… now that’s something to Glö about. Check them out and tell ‘em the Broke-Ass Bride sent ya!
I would love this…..if my grandmother and in-laws had computers.
Hi Lira – I'm Taryn, the founder of Glö.
If you need some matching paper invites for certain relatives – just get in touch. We can make it happen for you! (we sent about 10 paper invites ourselves…)
Oh so there is a paper invite option! That is good to keep in mind…. *bookmarks page*
This is awesome. I've been looking for a site that will allow me to upload my own design template, since I have a painting I want to use.
I love the idea of this because people just throw away those paper invites that cost a lot of money and time. I super love that is such an eco friendly way to do things as well. Now if I can just get myself past caring what people think of me if I send them electronic invites
Ah, if only my parents were computer literate! Such a great idea.
