Big News Nuances: Wedding Announcements And The Encore Bride

by mia bolaris-forget (Staff Writer)

Sometimes, hopefully, we get it right the first time. But for some, the second or third time may be the “charm”. And, just because it’s not our first time down the aisle or around the marriage block, doesn’t mean we are any less enthusiastic or excited. The “problem” however, is that friends and family, who’ve been down this road with us before, my not share our spirited sentiments. In fact, encore weddings are, for this, and many other reasons, typically smaller and more intimate. But, that doesn’t mean that your should curb “all” your enthusiasm. While you may not be quite as eager to shout the good news from the rooftop (this time around) you will want to send out “standard” announcements informing friends and family of the big news and/or that you tied the knot.
