Evite alternative

Paper&Seal vs Evite

Paper&Seal is an ad-free Evite alternative: no ads on any plan, the sealed-envelope opening included free, and $19 once per event for unlimited guests, where ad-free Evite Premium runs $17.99 to $99.99 per invitation.

Evite is the old reliable for a quick party invite, and its free designs pay for themselves with ads on your guests' screens. Removing them, or adding an envelope, means a Premium package priced by guest count, bought again for every invitation. Paper&Seal has no ads anywhere and one price per event.

Why hosts choose Paper&Seal over Evite

No ads, on any plan

Guests see your invitation, not someone else's ads. Every plan is ad-free, and a small Paper&Seal badge is the only other mark.

One price, any guest count

Evite prices each invitation by guest count, so a save the date and an invitation for 100 guests is two Diamond packages. On Paper&Seal they are rounds of one event, all for $19.

An envelope worth opening

Every invitation opens with a sealed envelope, free plan included. On paid plans, choose the wax seal's shape, colour and monogram, then the liner and card to match.

When Evite is the better pick

Evite is the better pick for a very large, casual guest list on no budget, if ads on the invitation do not bother you. Evite Pro also suits someone hosting many events a year: $249.99 covers unlimited Premium invitations.
