Why the Announcement Matters
Your wedding announcement is more than a way to share the news. It gives loved ones a meaningful way to celebrate with you, especially if they could not attend the ceremony or if you chose to elope.
A well-designed announcement also becomes a keepsake from this chapter of your story, especially when it includes your wedding date, photos, and a personal message.
When Should You Order Your Wedding Announcements?
Plan to order your wedding or elopement announcements 2–4 weeks before you want to mail them. This gives time for proofing, revisions, printing, addressing, and mailing.
If you are waiting for wedding or elopement photos, you can start by choosing your design and preparing your wording, then add your final photo once it is ready.
When Should You Send Wedding Announcements?
Wedding announcements are usually sent shortly after the wedding, elopement, or private ceremony. Many couples mail them within a few weeks of the event, especially if they are using professional photos.
If you’re also inviting guests to a later reception or celebration, your announcement can include those details or be paired with a separate reception card.
Avoid Common Wedding Announcement Mistakes
We make sure your announcement is:
-
Clean and well-spaced
-
Easy for guests to read
-
Clear about your names, date, and message
-
Consistent in lettering and layout
-
Balanced, polished, and ready to print
