Breaking the news.
After a wonderful engagement and after having a moment to catch her breath, Lucy realizes that she has a long list of people to contact and break the fabulous news. Just the thought of planning a wedding causes flutters of butterflies in Lucy’s stomach and also creates anxiety at every turn. Where to begin? First, traditionally when announcing an engagement you must decide if you want to mail announcements to your friends and family or publish an announcement in your local newspaper (or national newspaper). But as a tech savvy girl, Lucy resorted to announcing her engagement via email. Lucy created a cute wedding webite for herself and Mark and filled the announcement with personal greetings and thank you’s. Lucy sent an email to her family and closest friends including a link to the wedding webstie. But there were far more people to tell the great news to, so….why not throw a fabulous fiesta to celebrate, which is a great contemporary way to announce an engagement. The announcement party doubled as an engagement party and was just an excuse to get Lucy and Mark’s closet friends together, have drinks and make memories! Lucy was sure to keep the announcement under wraps until the big moment when Mark asked the crowd of friends to lift their glasses with him and Lucy as he screamed, “We’re in love and we’re engaged!” The screams, laughter and joy that followed filled the room and filled their hearts.
