[ANSTHRLD] trumpets vs Devices

[Darin Herndon]

No.  The herald is heralding for the entrant and whomever might be the entrant's consort.  Primary emphasis would be on the entrant who "hired" the herald with appropriate mention (as the client might direct) on announcing their consort.

Marshalled arms would state that the herald is is announcing on behalf of the HEIR of those pair of armigers and would not be appropriate for representing either party.

The only good ways (my opinion) to have the arms of both represented would be to have two heralds or to keep one herald in the arms of the entrant but have the arms of the consort carried in on a banner.  One herald for each person works but I still think that is not a good option since the critical action is heralding in the entrants; having a herald for each would visually suggest that both are entrants (which may be true and appropriate in that case).  Having the entrant with a herald in the entrant's arms and a banner behind and above the entrant and the consort with their arms would look very appropriate.

On the few occasions I've done it, the entrant agreed to their Consort having at least an equal emphasis during the procession.  In situations such as this ...

  ... would marshalled arms of the entrant and consort be appropriate?
