Wedding Announcement

DEADLINE:Wedding announcements will be accepted for publication within a year after the date of the wedding. Announcements are published free of charge. In most cases, they will appear a week or two after we have received the completed form. Announcements may be published later due to the quantity we receive or space limitations.

COMMUNITY POLICY: Announcements will be published only in the communities where the couple and their parents live now or have lived in the past. Please indicate former areas of residence that Community Newspapers covers.

NAME POLICY:Community Newspapers does not use courtesy titles, such as Mr., Mrs. or Dr. First and last names are required for everyone mentioned in the announcement.

PHOTO E-MAIL SUBMISSIONS:We welcome photos submitted via e-mail. Type “engagement” in the subject line, with the last names of both the bride and the groom and a contact's phone number in the body of the e-mail, and send it to news@cninow.com. We require a resolution of at least 200 dpi for photos 5-by-7 or larger or 300 dpi for smaller photos.

PHOTO CRITERIA: Black-and-white or color, high-quality photos of the couple may be submitted via mail up to size 8-by-10. Vertical photos work best. We do not pay for the use of photos, nor will we publish the name of the photographer. We reserve the right not to publish a photo at the discretion of the editor.

PHOTO POLICY: Photo prints will be returned only if a self-addressed, stamped envelope is provided.
