Newspaper Wedding Announcements PDF Print E-mail

There's no doubt about it - getting married is one of the most exciting experiences. Perhaps one of the more difficult tasks in planning a wedding, is finalising the guest list.  Both parties would like like to invite the majority of their family and friends but are restricted to their closest friends and immediate family memebers.  Once the ceremony is over, and depending on your budget, you may wish to announce your marriage to friends but sending out individuals wedding announcements.  Bear in mind, that this can be a costly exercise, So one alternative is to use the newspaper. 

Newsaper wedding announcements are a wonderfully convenient means to spread the news of your nuptials, at a fraction of the price of printed cards, and best of all, you do not have to worry that you have offended anyone by forgotting them on your list!

Placing newspaper wedding announcements is easy! You can choose which newspaper you would like to announce your wedding notice in, preferably the one with the highest circulation.  Browse through your local copy and check the newspaper wedding announcement section to see examples of text and layout. Depending on the particular publisher, you may be able to include a photo of the happy couple in the notice.

Most newspaper wedding anouncements include the following information, so have it handy when you call to place your notice: this includes the bride's maiden name, the groom's full name, the bride and groom's parents names, your wedding date, and even the location of your honemoon!

Some newspaper wedding announcements even allow you to include additional information such as grandparent's names and additional text to express your thanks and gratitude to your guests.  How much information you want to include is a matter of choice.  Some couples prefer to focus the newspaper wedding announcement soley on themselves - and that is perfectly acceptable!

Remember to inquire when the newspaper wedding announcements section is run in print as different newspaper may display iton different days.  Most newspaper wedding announcements appear over the weekend as more copies are sold over a Saturday and Sunday.  If you are given a choice on when to display your newspaper wedding announcement, try to choose the weeknd edition, if it is not too much more expensive than being run during the week.  If cost is a concern, there is no disgrace in running your newspaper wedding announcement in a weekday circulation.  Many people will still see it.

On the day or days that your very own newspaper wedding announcements appear, buy several copies of the newspaper and include the notice as one of your wedding day keepsakes to treasure.
