Noël Tijssens said: Is it possible to have a "NOTICE OF MARRIAGE" in the marriage data dropdown menu? it is verry common in a lot of countries, to have such a announcement (date).

We all share an active interest in using the resources of this site and as users, we have various levels of knowledge and experience and do our best to help each other with concerns, issues, and/or questions.

The couple relationship area needs a lot of help and hopefully, it is something that will be more fully developed in the near future. Right now, the best we have are patches to the existing area. Sometimes, the developers take one or more steps backward and they did that when they removed the option to open the couple relationship in its own page.

Regardless, wedding announcements / engagements to be married are badly needed. So are other events / facts that involve the couple as a couple.

I fully support this idea, but this is something we've been requesting for a very long time.

Tom Huber said: Thanks, Juli. I did not consider the reading of banns when I responded, but yes, that is likely what Noël was asking for.
