Creating a Wedding Newsletter

Are you looking for a way to make plans with your wedding party run smoothly? Do you want to make your wedding party aware of all important dates and responsibilities without making dozens of phone calls?

The best way to get your wedding party informed and up to date on your wedding plans is by creating a wedding newsletter. Wedding newsletters can be an inexpensive and efficient way to let your wedding party know what exactly is going on for the big day, especially if members of your wedding party live all over the country. It can reduce telephone calls, long distance costs, and become a black and white reminder to your party members of the different tasks that need to be completed.

If mailing your newsletter, send it anywhere from 4-6 months prior to your wedding. You should have most of your important dates finalized by then.

Include a list of all bridal party members and their phone numbers so that they can all get in touch with one another. This will make planning your bachelor/bachelorette party easier for them, among other tasks. Also, don’t forget to include both sets of parents on the phone list, as they will need to be contacted as well. Include email addresses also, if applicable.

Make a timeline with important dates, times and places so that party members can have a reference for their calendar. Also, this helps them settle time off from work and school in a timely manner.

Include dates for the rehearsal dinner, wedding, showers, parties, fittings, and other important information for your wedding party.

Include registry information, if any, on your newsletter, so that your bridal party will be aware and able to pass the word along to your guests.

Include directions to your church, reception, etc. in case party members are unsure of how to get there.

If you have a wedding website, list the web address to it on your newsletter. This can also serve as a communication medium between your wedding party. Furthermore, put your wedding newsletter on your wedding website. This will allow your bridal party the opportunity to look it up just in case it gets lost. Or, only do your newsletter on line, and email the link to your wedding party members.

Also, put a special message of thanks to your wedding party, so that everyone knows how much your appreciate them participating in your big day.

Making a wedding newsletter can be easy just by using a standard word processing program like Microsoft Word or a desktop publishing program like Microsoft Publisher. With a few clicks of a mouse and a little typing, your wedding party can be current on all the happenings of your wedding!
