\"Announcing<\/p>\n

There\u2019s nothing more romantic than running off together to elope. Forget the storybook wedding. You and the person you love alone in a remote locale \u2014 that\u2019s the stuff storybooks are really made of.<\/span><\/p>\n

Eloping can save you time, money, and stress, and it can provide the <\/span>intimate wedding<\/span> ceremony you both want. But there\u2019s one advantage that <\/span>traditional weddings<\/span> have over elopements \u2014 after it\u2019s over, all of your nearest and dearest know you got married. With an elopement, nobody knows so you have to share the news.<\/span><\/p>\n

While planning elopements is usually less stressful than the <\/span>traditional wedding planning process<\/span>, announcing an elopement can also be stressful \u2014 especially if your <\/span>loved ones<\/span> are going to be disappointed that they weren\u2019t part of your <\/span>big day<\/span> (or that they weren\u2019t invited to an open bar party). But remember, it was <\/span>your<\/span><\/i> big day<\/span>. You did it your way. And the people who love you will be excited for you \u2014 even without an open bar.<\/span><\/p>\n

Your <\/span>elopement announcement<\/span> will help you share your excitement. And with a few etiquette tips and the right announcement card, you can make sure announcing your elopement doesn\u2019t cause any hard feelings. Here\u2019s how to do it.<\/span>
\n<\/p>\n

Etiquette for Announcing Elopements<\/b><\/h2>\n
\"Announcing

Design: Septembre Papeterie<\/p><\/div>\n

When you\u2019re reveling in <\/span>newlywed<\/span> bliss, you don\u2019t have time to call everyone in your phone book and tell them the <\/span>big news<\/span>. But there are a few people who do deserve a call.<\/span><\/p>\n

Most of your friends and <\/span>family members<\/span> can learn about your <\/span>private ceremony<\/span> from a <\/span>wedding announcement card<\/span> or from an invitation to your <\/span>post-elopement party<\/span> if you\u2019re having one. Meanwhile, your more distant connections can learn about your <\/span>special day<\/span> from <\/span>social media<\/span>. Here\u2019s a quick breakdown of who gets each type of announcement and when to make them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who Gets a Phone Call?<\/b><\/h3>\n

Immediate <\/span>family members<\/span> and <\/span>close friends<\/span> should hear about your \u201c<\/span>I dos\u201d<\/span> directly from you. Some couples invite this select group to their <\/span>elopement wedding<\/a><\/strong> \u2014 if that\u2019s the type of elopement you had, then you can skip this step.<\/span><\/p>\n

But if your elopement was truly just the two of you, then you should call your parents and siblings, as well as other <\/span>family members<\/span> who you feel as close to as your parents and siblings. If you have a close relationship with your grandma, give her a call. If you have an uncle who was like a second father to you, give him a call too.<\/span><\/p>\n

As far as friends go, you should call the <\/span>close friends<\/span> who you talk to almost everyday or who you think of as an extension of your family. Picture the friends you would\u2019ve asked to be in your wedding party if you\u2019d had a <\/span>traditional wedding reception<\/span> and ceremony. Those are the friends who deserve a phone call.<\/span><\/p>\n

When Should You Make the Call?<\/b><\/h3>\n

Your closest friends and <\/span>family members<\/span> should hear about your <\/span>elopement day<\/span> from you before they see the news anywhere else. Call them before you send out an <\/span>elopement card<\/span> or an <\/span>elopement reception invitation<\/span>, and definitely before you post anything on <\/span>social media<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some couples tell their nearest and dearest before the elopement even takes place. This has advantages and disadvantages. Your parents might be happy to get the news beforehand, but they might also invite themselves and start booking plane tickets right in the middle of your phone call \u2014 even if you\u2019re having a super remote<\/span> destination wedding<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

If that\u2019s OK with you, by all means tell your family beforehand. But if you\u2019re worried about your <\/span>loved ones<\/span> taking over your <\/span>special day<\/span>, then it\u2019s perfectly fine to wait until after the ceremony to make the call.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who Gets an Announcement Card?<\/b><\/h3>\n
\"Announcing

Design: Claudia Owen<\/p><\/div>\n

Once you\u2019ve told your inner circle, you can send out <\/span>elopement announcement cards<\/span> or <\/span>post-elopement party invitations<\/span>. You may even want to send out some of each if you\u2019re having a small elopement party with local friends and <\/span>family members<\/span>, but also want to inform <\/span>loved ones<\/span> near and far about your <\/span>big news<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

You should send announcement cards to everyone who got a phone call. Even though they already know about your <\/span>wedding day<\/span>, they\u2019ll want to see your announcement, especially if it includes a <\/span>wedding photo<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

You should also send announcements to the friends and <\/span>family members<\/span> you haven\u2019t told yet. This could include grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins, college friends, childhood friends, former roommates, and anyone else you\u2019re close with but don\u2019t see daily. Basically, anyone you would\u2019ve invited to a <\/span>traditional wedding<\/span> should get an <\/span>elopement announcement card<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

For your <\/span>announcement wording<\/span>, all you need to include is your name, your partner\u2019s name, your <\/span>wedding date<\/span>, and a few words that clearly state that you have already gotten married. You want to make it clear that this is a <\/span>wedding announcement<\/span> and not a<\/span>\u00a0wedding invitation<\/strong><\/span><\/a> or a<\/span>\u00a0save the date<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Phrases like, \u201c<\/span>We tied the knot<\/span>,\u201d \u201cWe\u2019ve started our <\/span>happily ever after<\/span>,\u201d \u201cWe did,\u201d and \u201c<\/span>Just married<\/span>\u201d will make it clear that the wedding has already taken place. Add an <\/span>epic elopement photo<\/span> of you and your partner with a <\/span>wedding dress<\/span> or tux in the shot, and your message will be clear.<\/span><\/p>\n

When Can You Post It on <\/b>Social Media<\/b>?<\/b><\/h3>\n

A <\/span>social media<\/span> announcement will tell your more distant friends \u2014 like former coworkers or teammates from that adult dodgeball league you used to play in \u2014 that you got married. But the only people who should find out through <\/span>social media<\/span> are people you wouldn\u2019t have invited to a <\/span>traditional wedding<\/span> anyway.<\/span><\/p>\n

To make sure your <\/span>close friends<\/span> and <\/span>family members<\/span> see your official <\/span>elopement announcement<\/span> before they see it on <\/span>social media<\/span>, you\u2019ll need to wait a short period between when you send out your announcements and when you post.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you send paper announcements via snail mail, it can take<\/span> up to eight days<\/strong><\/span><\/a> for your <\/span>elopement cards<\/span> to get delivered. To be safe, wait 10 days after mailing your announcements before posting on <\/span>social media<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you send out<\/span> digital announcement cards<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, your <\/span>big news<\/span> will be delivered in minutes, directly to your <\/span>loved one<\/span>\u2019s phone number or email address, which means you can post your <\/span>social media<\/span> announcement the same day. Or you can wait a couple of days to make sure everyone has time to check their email.<\/span><\/p>\n

Your <\/span>social media<\/span> post is a great place to include more shots from your <\/span>wedding photographer<\/span>, but if you didn\u2019t have a photographer at your elopement ceremony, you can make your announcement cards part of your <\/span>social media<\/span> post.<\/span><\/p>\n

5 <\/b>Elopement Announcement Cards<\/b><\/h2>\n

An announcement card is a beautiful way to share your <\/span>big news<\/span>. Use one of these designs to let <\/span>loved ones<\/span> share in your <\/span>special day<\/span>, or browse hundreds of other<\/span> marriage announcement cards<\/strong><\/span><\/a> designed by independent artists.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Crown

Design: Colin Cowie<\/p><\/div>\n

If your intimate ceremony included your immediate family, you can honor their presence at your <\/span>wedding day<\/span> with<\/span> this textured announcement card<\/a><\/strong>. The message also thanks friends and <\/span>family members<\/span> who weren\u2019t invited for their love and support, serving as a subtle reminder that love is what it\u2019s all about.<\/span><\/p>\n

Small Ceremony, <\/b>Big News<\/b><\/h2>\n

You and your partner just took the leap into life together. And no matter how small your ceremony was, that\u2019s <\/span>big news<\/span> you\u2019ll want to share with all your <\/span>loved ones<\/span> so they can share in your excitement.<\/span><\/p>\n

For any <\/span>loved ones<\/span> who are sad that they didn\u2019t get to join in on your ceremony, remind them that life is full of big moments. You\u2019ll have plenty of reasons to celebrate with them in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n

From an elopement <\/span>after party<\/span> to birthday parties and housewarmings to anniversaries and maybe even a baby shower (or maybe a puppy shower), Greenvelope is here to help you celebrate all of those big moments and more.
