Wedding Announcement

      It is routine to have a wedding engagement announcement placed in local newspaper to spread the happy news. A photograph of the couple is usually sent in along with details of the engagement and the wedding. This was not always the customary way to announce the engagement. In the 1800's men were hired to walk around town and shout the news of an engagement. In those days newspapers were not as widely spread as they are today and this was a much more effective way.
