Don’t forget to let friends know that you have moved

For many couples, getting married means a change of address and home phone number. You would be surprised how many couples forget to pass these contact details onto their family and friends, and this is one of the main ways that people lose touch.

I know of one bride who included her and her husband’s new contact info on the reception programs. The problem with this however, was that the wedding guest consisted of people that she didn’t necessarily want knowing her personal contact details and as a result she kept having unannounced visits. I know, you might be saying, well then why would she invite them to her wedding, but she fell into the ‘obligatory’ invites trap.

The best way to handle this tactfully is prior to your wedding, write down a list to determine who needs to be updated with your contact details. Have two lists, some people prefer that certain people only know their home phone number, whilst others are happy for people to know both their home number and address.
The easiest way to let people know your new address is to pop it in the thank-you card that you will be sending after the wedding.
