I will get married next month and I'm making an announcement to invite my friends, relative and my staff. Is the following sentence correct and natural?

I announce I will get married next month.
 
@output Your “announcement” needs more personalization. Your sample sentence is as personal as saying “I announce I am getting a root canal next month.” :confused:
At a minimum, you could say something like “I am proud/pleased to announce that I am getting married on (date).”

Your version should definitely not be used. The use of the present perfect like this suggests a habitual action, as if you regularly announce you'll be getting married next month!

How are you making this announcement? If you're putting it out by email or letter, I'd start with something like "I'm delighted to announce that I will be marrying [name of fiancé/fiancée] on [date] at [time]. You're invited to celebrate with us at [venue]. RSVP." (If "RSVP" isn't familiar to the people you're inviting, end with something like "Please let us know as soon as possible if you will be attending".
