Engagement announcements
are an integral part of the marriage planning process, especially if
your engagement will be longer than a year. An engagement announcement lets friends and family, as well as acquaintances, know that you are
engaged, and it can inform them of an engagement party, if you plan
to have one. However you select to do your announcements, through invitations
or by merely posting it in the newspaper, it is possible for you to
get the word out by using engagement announcements.
Wedding invitations v. engagement announcement
When you are planning your marriage, you need to decide how you
will announce your upcoming nuptials, as well as invite people to
your wedding. An invitation is sent to actually ask people to attend
an event (such as a wedding or an engagement
party). Announcements
are meant to just let people know. Many people choose to send announcements
for an engagement if the marriage ceremony is more than a year away.
Then, as the wedding approaches, wedding invitations can be sent.
No matter how you do it, however, it is important for you to get
your cards done as you would like, or to have the newspaper announcement
say what you would like. If you are having them professionally done,
make sure you see a sample, and that everything is to your satisfaction.
After all, you are the customer, and are paying for the product.
Choosing verses for engagement announcement cards
Many people like
to add a personal touch to their announcement cards. One way to
do this is to select poems or sentiment to put at the bottom of
the card, or at the top, to add a nice, emotional touch to the
card. There are many appropriate verses for engagement announcement
cards. If you have a favourite poem or song lyric, these are
nice to use. It is even possible to write your own verse for the
announcement. When
you are preparing for marriage with someone you are committed to,
you want to let people know. One of the best ways to do that is
to send out engagement announcements.
