If you're into those special little details that'll make all the difference on your wedding day, then this might be just the perfect trending wedding detail for you! Wedding Newspapers are a great way to get creative with your wedding day info, throw in a few games, and tell your love story in the most unique way possible, because your very own edition of the Newly Wed Post makes for a truly memorable wedding keepsake. Plus, it's a great talking point and something unique your guests probably wont have seen before!
What Is A Wedding Newspaper?
'What are wedding newspapers?' We hear you ask. Well, much like a regular newspaper, a Wedding Newspaper allows you to customise every inch of it with wedding details - to make it look like a real newspaper, with large areas to fill-in with your text & pictures. Whether used as a Save The Date, as part of an invitation suite, popped into wedding welcome bags, as an update on the traditional ceremony program booklet, or, as an alternative to the thank you card after the big day - this customised wedding item has been gaining serious momentum at weddings in the last year.
An interactive wedding item that can be used and loved before, during or after the big day, wedding newspapers can be used for all sorts. Below, we've broken down all the ways you can use wedding newspapers in your celebration.
Wedding Newspaper Save The Dates & Invitations
Catch your guests’ attention right from the start with a Wedding Newspaper Save The Date or Wedding Invite. As well as your wedding details, a wedding newspaper is a great opportunity to include your wedding weekend itinerary, photos from your engagement shoot, your wedding day playlist, moments from your love story so far, fun facts about the couple, or games like crosswords so that the newspaper can be interactive in the lead up to your big day.
We've also seen couples adding interviews with parents, grandparents or other family members, as well as QR codes so their guests could scan to see the location of the wedding on Google Maps. We love the idea of guests keeping the newspaper on their coffee table in the weeks before the wedding!
Wedding Newspaper Ceremony Program
Tell your guests everything they need to know for your ceremony with a Wedding Newspaper Ceremony Program or Order of Service. Here you can add all the usual wedding ceremony details or order of service items, but as they are larger, a wedding newspaper allows you to add more fun little details - from the lyrics to the songs, words to the readings, and traditions you’ll be incorporating into your wedding ceremony, to a 'meet the wedding party' or information about what to expect after the ceremony.
Wedding Newspaper Itinerary
Having wedding welcome bags? Why not consider adding a Wedding Newspaper Itinerary? This is a great opportunity to add information like the plans for your wedding weekend from your welcome dinner to newlywed brunch. Add a map of the local area and include your favourite local hotspots and a thank-you note - guests will really appreciate a simple note to let them know how thrilled you are to have them.
You could also add photos of the hen and stag parties, a custom wedding crossword puzzle for the adults or a colouring page for the kiddies. Don't forget to include your wedding hashtag, or QR code for wedding pictures if you have one too!
Wedding Newspaper Thank You
Turn favourite photos and moments from the day into a keepsake your guests will treasure with a Wedding Newspaper Thank You. Again, as there is more space to work with, a Wedding Newspaper Thank You allows you to add in lots of gorgeous photos from the day as well as some of your favourite memories. A unique alternative to the traditional wedding thank you card - it's perfect for newlyweds to send a copy to the guests at their wedding as a keepsake.
Wedding Newspaper Photo Prop
Love the idea but maybe 150+ wedding newspapers aren't in the wedding budget? You can always buy a smaller print run to use simply as a Wedding Newspaper Photo Prop. Perfect for your bridesmaid proposal boxes, your morning prep photos, fun couples portraits, or for a trending flat-lay photo for your wedding details!
