Bear in mind that if you have eloped wedding announcement wording is particularly important.
His wife eloped with a student, and Dempster, pursuing the fugitives in the heat of summer, caught a fever, and died at Bologna on the 6th of September 1625.
He stayed in Venice a few years, then eloped to Naples with his patron's daughter.
Though some people simply have a way with words and can share even the most awkward news with the greatest of ease, not everyone can eloquently or comfortably inform loved ones that they have eloped.
Many couples that have eloped simply don't want to receive presents and may feel tempted to include a statement to that effect in the announcement.
