Outvite.com Adds New York Invite To Its Popular

West Boylston, Massachusetts (I-Newswire) July 21, 2011 - Company Expects Historic Decision to Jump-Start Nationwide Demand for Wedding Stationery by Enthusiastic New York Couples

Today, Outvite.com — the first Web site dedicated to providing fine stationery, invitations, announcements and holiday cards for the Gay, Lesbian, Bi-sexual, and Transgender (GLBT) community — added New York State to its popular "Hitched" collection of gay and lesbian wedding invitations. The whimsical and popular collection features vanity license plates for all 7 states that have legalized gay marriage, and has been well liked since the first invitation was released for couples in Outvite’s home state of Massachusetts in May, 2003.

"The New York decision is a turning point in the quest for marriage equality, nationwide," said Joanne Laipson, vice president, alliances, Outvite.com. "8 years ago nationwide, Outvite was first to honor marriage equality in our home state of Massachusetts with fine stationery, invitations, announcements and holiday cards, and has been adding "legal" states to our popular Hitched collection ever since. We're thrilled to bring our New York “Hitched” wedding invitation "out of closet", to help New Yorkers celebrate!"

New York joins 6 other states in the "Hitched" collection, which include Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New Hampshire and Vermont. The cards, printed on high-quality card stock, are an engaging and fun way for couples to invite friends, family and loved ones to their wedding, or let them know about a recent exchange of vows.

"We expect to see an increasing demand for wedding invitations from couples in New York," added Laipson. "The tone and style of the wedding begins with the invitation, and Outvite will be there to get these nuptial celebrations underway with customized invitations that will reflect the uniqueness of each couple."

A recent report by the New York State Senate's Independent Democratic Conference estimated that gay marriage could generate about $391 million in increased economic activity, revenue and savings during the first three years it is in place.
