Idea: The paperless wedding

Okay, your grandpa probably still wants you to kill a tree, so he can receive a nice paper invitation from you. But one option to explore is ways to switch from paper to online resources.

Consider this. You include nice driving directions and a map to your wedding venue - but two-thirds of your guests still end up calling for directions. Or else they just go online to Mapquest or Google Maps for personalized directions. Why not save paper, and simply send them an online link? Sure, they have to print the map themselves, but they would probably do that anyway.
