Send or give personally??

This is my first time here, so hi everybody.
I need some advice. My fiance and I are getting married in October. We're having a very small wedding (seriously! tiny - 24 guests).
We live with some of our family: my fiance's sister and cousin, both of whom we wish to invite. Now, do we send them invitations, even though they have the same address that we do? Or should we hand them personally? It's not like we want to save on postage

but what's the etiquette here? My gut is telling me: 'send'. What do you think?
Peace!
Beata.

I think that it depends on how formal your wedding is going to be. If it is going to be formal then I think that you should send them. If it is going to be informal I think that you could hand it to them. Hope this helps!

Dear Beegirl,

Weddings even when formal should be as personalized as possible. It is a time to share the love you feel with your husband-to-be with your family and friends. So, since you all live in the same home, why not give the invitations(nicely packaged) in person & let them know just how important it is to you & your fiance for them to attend your wedding. I'm sure they will really appreciate this kind jester.

Congratulations & best wishes for a wonderful wedding day!

Hand deliver all you can, I think that is wonderfully personal and it saves on postage, I think anyone could appreciate that.
