How to search for a wedding announcement in a newspaper

Wedding announcements appear, sometimes, in newspapers. They help the newly engaged to inform family, friends and acquaintances of their news. The newspaper clipping also serves as a great memory for the couple. Follow these steps if you want to look for an old wedding ad in the newspaper. Sometimes it is the friends themselves who publish it to spend a joke on those who get married or to share the joy of the wedding in a newspaper.
