Announcing your engagement
One of the first things that you will want to do after becoming engaged is tell your friends and relatives your good news. It is traditional to place an announcement in a local and/or national newspaper. The customary wording for a formal announcement is:
The advertising department of the newspaper will be able to advise you on alternative wording, if appropriate.
In addition to the traditional method, you might like to consider announcing your engagement on the Internet as many web sites now offer a wedding announcement service.
Planning
Before setting the date you will need to decide what type of ceremony you will have so that you can check the availability of the church, register office, civil venue or synagogue. You should meet with your minister, priest, registrar or rabbi to arrange the ceremony.
Make sure you plan well ahead, particularly if your wedding is to take place over the summer. As this is the busiest time of year for weddings, you may need to start making arrangements about a year in advance to get the greatest choice of the services that you require. If you find yourself short of time you can leave some of the decisions to the experts - for example, a banqueting manager can help with many of the details of your reception. If you are going to need a lot of help with the arrangements you might consider acquiring the services of a wedding coordinator.
You will need to be well organized as there is a lot for you to do. Keep all the notes you make and the brochures that you receive in a special place and keep an eye on your budget to make sure that you always remain on target.
