If you're looking to spread the word about your impending nuptials digitally, this guide will help you compose the perfect electronic invite.

Step 1: Compile addresses
Compile a list of e-mail addresses early in the planning process. Double check for spelling to be sure they get to their intended recipients.

Tip
If you are not going to send out paper invitations at all, make sure you make that clear in your e-invitation, so that don't wait for a paper invitation to RSVP.

Step 2: Customize
Use publishing software to customize an e-mail or attachment to fit your wedding theme and create a strong presentation -- or look online for a template.

Step 3: Study other invitations
Study other wedding invitations you like to get the basic format and include the date, time, and location of your wedding in your design.

Step 4: Send links
Take advantage of e-mail's capability to send links for hotel information, maps, and even your own wedding website.

Step 5: Use a coordinator
Have a family member or friend function as a correspondence coordinator, keeping track of RSVPs, answering questions, and responding to bounced e-mails so you can focus on other details and have a worry-free wedding day.
