Reader Services Submit an Announcement

The Portland Press Herald / Maine Sunday Telegram publishes basic wedding notices for free in each Sunday edition.

There is no charge for this service, however, its composition is strictly limited to the names of the bride and groom, and the date and location of the wedding. Photos are not allowed.

(If you wish to include a photo with your notice or to have more control over the wording (subject to usual publishing restrictions), you will need to submit a Paid Wedding Announcement instead.)

The deadline for submission is 5 p.m. every Tuesday for publication in the Maine Sunday Telegram 12 days later, however due to spacing issues, we are unable to guarantee the date of publication.

To submit a free wedding notice, please complete the form below.
