     Wedding Announcements to clients  

I will be married on July 1. I own a business and have (obviously) been using my name professionally. I will be changing my name to my fiance's last name and using it professionally. What is the appropriate manner to inform my clients and business associates that I will be taking on a new name. I will sending out announcements to distant relatives. Can I use the same announcement? If so, how do I word it to let people know I will be changing my name. If not, what is the proper wording for letting business associates know my new name.

Maybe I should also mention that I used my name fairly publicly - on marketing pieces, company newsletters, etc. Thanks again.

Dear New Name,

You could enclose a 'Name Card' with your announcements. Yours could look like this:

Ms. Jane Doe will be changing her name to Ms. Jane Smith following her marriage Date.

You could incorporate this information on your announcement also. But, it is less traditional.

Best wishes,

So should my clients receive announcements? or just the name change cards?

The important issue is your name change. So, they really only need the Name Card.
