Baby announcement!!

Rochelle, on August 28, 2017 at 6:08 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 38

We are expecting our second child in February and are thinking of announcing it either before or at the wedding reception. Has anyone done this before and have any cute ways to announce it to our family and friends on our special day!?

    Congrats!! What a perfect opportunity to share the news with your family! I personally would wait until the reception so it doesn't draw attention from your vows. Maybe have the DJ introduce the new family of four for your entrance?

    Congrats!

    I love Allison's idea. I think announcing during the ceremony would detract from your vows, but I love the idea of being announced as a family of four! And it could be cute on coasters (or something) to be handed out with drinks once dinner starts. However you do it, you should tell the photographer beforehand so they know to catch the expressions of VIPs.

    ETA: I see it's probably too late for coasters or handouts. You could announce it like Beyoncé and after the first dance is over just start rubbing your stomach and wink (that's a joke).

    I saw on TV the couple played a video during the reception and that's how they told people. But the family of 4 announcement that Allison suggested sounds perfect....except some people probably won't catch on lol

    The announcement by the DJ of a family of 4 idea is cute but I'm sure a lot of people won't catch it lol

    You could have a special cake or cupcakes to announce it maybe? I'm not really good with stuff like this, but congratulations to you and FH!
