Specializing In Memorable
Traditional & Custom Wedding Ceremonies

In general, formal wedding announcements are sent to individuals who were not invited to the wedding, for whatever reason, but who would be interested in knowing of your marriage. For example, people who live too far away to invite, those you are unable to include in a small wedding, and people for whom you feel an invitation would imply a gift obligation. And, for the adventuresome and carefree among us, announcements are appropriate after eloping.

Wording

The wedding announcement generally mirrors the wording of the wedding invitation, with the request line, (i.e. "request the honor of your presence at [the wedding of..]") simply replaced with "have the honor to announce [the marriage of]" or "are delighted to announce [the marriage of]".

Mailing Announcements

Announcements are traditionally mailed the day of the wedding (after the ceremony has taken place) or the day following the wedding. This is an area where you could recruit a close friend or relative to help, asking them to mail the announcements that you have already addressed and stamped.
