Mail Don’t Tweet your Engagement Announcement News

You have a new sparkler on your left hand, you can’t stop smiling, and you have a new title “fiance”.  After calling your closest family members and friends to share your special news, how do you spread the word to everyone else? Weddings are special and rich with tradition so, rather than reaching for your phone to update your Facebook status, consider the benefits of a formal engagement announcement to spread the word.

A mailed engagement announcement will set the tone for your guests to expect a traditional wedding celebration if that is what you choose. The announcement card may be highly personalized and could include a photo of you and your fiance; which would be particularly appreciated by recipients who may not know one of you or who have not seen you in a long time. A mailed card also gives you control of the announcement, ensuring that nobody close to you gets offended by reading a tweet about your engagement before you tell them.

If you do choose to send an engagement announcement, make sure that everyone getting one will also be invited to the wedding, and make sure that it is not mistaken for a wedding invitation. The announcement can also double as a Save the Date card if you already know and include the date of the wedding.

You may reference dozens of wedding-related sites, apps, and blogs during your engagement months; so why not make your engagement announcement standout as a personalized quality card delivered via the U.S. Mail instead?
