Unique Announcement Wording
|
|
Q.
I was wondering if you have any
unique announcement wording for engagements and weddings that
would be put in the newspaper... also, when should these be
submitted to the newspaper?
A.
In most areas the
newspapers have their own policies about what they will
print. Smaller weekly newspapers are usually more willing
to print a longer notice. They often include a picture of
the bride with the engagement announcement as well as with
the wedding announcement. The wedding announcement might
include the names of the members of the wedding party,
information about the bride's gown, and other information
as well as the usual information about the couple's
education and employment.
Daily newspapers may only
accept a few lines for an engagement announcement and may
limit the length of the wedding announcement. Many larger
daily papers are now charging to print both wedding and
engagement announcements.
I suggest to my brides that
they contact the paper that they plan to run the
announcements in and find out their specific
requirements. Many papers now have web sites that list
the information and even have forms that can be
downloaded.
Usually, an engagement
announcement can be submitted any time after the
engagement occurs, though I suggest that it be about 6
months or less before the wedding. However, if it is sent
too close to the wedding date, the couple run the risk of
the paper not having room to print it before the wedding.
Most papers have a time limit on the length of time after
a wedding that they will accept a wedding announcement.
My local paper has a 3 month limit, though I occasionally
see one that occurred earlier.

Advice:
We would like to send out wedding announcements to our friends
that will not be at the wedding. We thought that including a
wallet-size wedding picture would be nice. However, the
pictures will not be developed until a month after the
wedding. Is this too late to send the announcements out? |
| |
Advice:
should the announcements be just from the newly weds or from
the parents like the invitations? Should they include the
elopement date and place? Since they do not receive mail at
their home, should only their PO box be mentioned; if so, how? |
| |
Advice:
We are having a private family wedding. After the wedding we
will send wedding announcements. How do we word our return
address? |
| |
Advice:
I would like to announce the engagement of my son and his
fianc้ to friends and old neighbors who I haven't spoken to
in a while. This does not mean that they will be invited to a
wedding, (cost prohibitive,) it's simply to let them know that
they are engaged. Is this proper? |
| |
Advice:
The Groom's father is deceased. We would like to include
groom's father's name. is it better to include "at home card"
or just state"...now reside at.." |

Advice:
We cannot invite all of our friends to the wedding and
reception. Are announcements for friends and family who live
far away (an acceptable thing to do?) Are announcements for
friends who live in the vicinity of the church rude? When
should announcements be sent out? |

Advice:
Wording: Las Vegas Wedding:
We are having a reception one week later in our home town.
People are more than welcome to join us in Las Vegas, but I
don't want them to feel like we are asking them, but the
option is there. I was wondering if I should include the
wedding ceremony information as well as the reception
information. |

We are sending them to people we could not quite afford to
invite to our wedding. I am keeping my maiden name. Can you
give us any suggestions? |
