Email and Etiquette

I've recently received two invitations for more traditional events (bridal shower and a wedding - different people) that had email addresses in the "Please RSVP" section. (The shower invitation also included a phone number and the wedding invitation included the address of course).

And I started thinking... I obviously don't mind communicating using computers. But something just seems wrong with RSVPing for such traditional events via email. Somehow, it seems like we're taking the convenience too far. Making it too informal. Too impersonal. I don't like it.

So what did I do? I RSVPed for the bridal shower. Via email. Because I didn't want to talk to anyone. And just because I have that much strength of conviction. Not fickle at all. Nope. :p
