Tips & Warnings
Remember to include your contact information when you announce your wedding. Include both parties' daytime and evening phone numbers. If you forget this information, your wedding announcement will not appear in the paper.
Don't send engagement announcements to the "New York Times." The paper only considers wedding announcements for inclusion in their Sunday Society section.
