I'm planning a shower for my friend and can't decide on the invite method.
paper: pros - classier, prettier, more traditional
cons - will cost about $75 with postage and everything and people are so bad about RSVP'ing with paper invites these days.
Evite: pros - free so I can spend more on something else, easy to RSVP
cons - doesn't feel as "nice".
I dunno. I'm stuck. any thoughts?

ok cool this is just what I needed. I was leaning that way but just needed the shove.
Thanks ladies!!
Paper.Evites are tacky like PPs said. I prefer paper to attach to my calendar. It helps everyone to see what is going on that day.
If you have to do evites, send out a week before the event if they haven't RSVP'd.
I would rather get a cheap paper invite from Party City or Walmart (actually, they have some nice ones, I take that back) than an e-vite or, God forbid, a Facebook event. I just think that invitations for traditional get-togethers should be on paper.
Absolutely Paper. Evites are tacky. I know someone who did Evites for her wedding. Alot of those that were invited will not be going because they feel it was not personal. Evites are junkmail.
