What percentage of weddings still use printed invitations?

Printed invitations are still the standard for weddings, and the numbers back it up. A physical invitation is a keepsake guests can hold, display, and save, which is why the vast majority of couples still mail them.

• About 78% of couples send physical wedding invitations (2024 survey data).
• Roughly 12% go fully digital with email or web-based invites.
• The remaining 10% use a hybrid approach, mixing printed and digital.

The staying power comes down to feel: a heavy, well-printed invitation sets the tone for the event and reads as more personal than a link in an inbox.
