Other Announcements

July 19th, 2006 @ 2:05 pm by Mrs. Bee

When Numb3rs star Diane Farr first got engaged a couple years ago, she sent out 300 announcements that said Engaged on the outside, with names and a wedding date on the inside. The engagement was soon called off but the well wishes continued to pour in, so Diane decided that she needed to send out a second announcement. Three months later Diane sent out an announcement that looked exactly like the original, but with a completely different message.

The outpouring of support was overwhelming so Diane and her best friend who designed the card decided to launch Other Announcements - cards for breaking awkward, sad, and silly news like calling off a wedding, divorce, coming out of the closet, plastic surgery, sobriety, unemployment and more. They’re a delightfully dark and hilarious read.

Diane is now happily engaged once again, and ironically just finished making her invitations through the very company she created after her first engagement.

I read about this in the Modern Bride I got last week (which was nice to read through on an hour flight to Vegas on Friday). I was cracking up about it! What a clever little card!
She’s on that one show too…is it Numbers?
