How are you being announced as a newly married couple?

Ladies and Gentlemen I'd like you all to welcome Mr. and Mrs. Rigby

I can't wait to change my last name

I'm taking my f/s last name so it's going to be mrs. and mrs. D... (no first names).... I've been wanting to change my last name since I was 5! But I think you meant Mr. and Mrs.?

Hahaha I totally did, good catch!

I don't know the exact wording, but it will probably have to include our first names too, since his dad has the same first name. But I'm taking his last name, can't wait to do so, and will definitely be introduced by only his last name for last names.

~DJ hype, blah, blah, blah~ Ladies and Gentlemen, let's give a big hand for our bride and groom, Kris and Frado Berblahblah!!

What do you guys think about Dr. and Mrs. ... My fiance is a medical resident. Is it arrogant? Or cute??

If you dont want to change your name have the dj say "ladies and gentleman help me welcome the wonderful bride Jane and her handsome groom John"

Mr. and Mrs. Abela....! My name is getting changed!

@Bridetobe123, I think its fine to be announced that way...traditionally etiquette dictates that certain professional titles such as Doctor be used to replace Mr or Mrs...you guys should always be referred to as Doctor and Mrs FH's Last Name once you are married

Thanks everyone! @Andi, I love that option...I'll run that by the FH.

@Bridetobe, I think it's also fine. I like special titles though My sister's in her residency as well and I would definitely encourage her to use the Dr. title in a wedding!

There are already so many big changes around a wedding that changing your last name doesn't need to happen right away...or at all.

I have a friend who didn't change her last name until they had their first child...5 years later. She said her husband really wanted her to change it but it didn't make sense to her until she had kids.

I don't plan on changing my name although my FH really wants me to. I think in time he will be fine with it.

My introduction will be "Welcome for the first time as husband and wife, Sue and John".

Thanks guys!!

FH is going to be so excited

Bridetobe123--it is definitely customary to be introduced with proper titles, so Dr. and Mrs. would make sense. I have heard Dr. and Dr. (they both had their doctorates...), or could be Rev. and Mrs., etc.

I can't wait to be announced with his last name! I most definitely will be making a grand entrance with him as "Mr. and Mrs. Kerwin!"

@Bridetobe123, for sure have them announce as Dr. That's his proper title and should be addressed as such. Yay for him on being a Dr.!

We will be announcing something like, "Please welcome for the first time, Mr and Mrs. German!"

We thought about adding first names in too -- would be both, not just his -- but decided against it.

May I introduce to you for the first time as husband and wife--the newlyweds John and Mary! (This works either way--if you're taking his last name or not.)

@Kylene Thank you! I'm so proud of him. All that hard work and sleepless nights paid off. I couldn't be luckier

I'm definitely not changing my name, so we're just being introduced as "the newlyweds"!

Really haven't given it much thought! But, I can't wait to be Mrs. Heideman... you'll can call me Mrs. H! LOL!
