reception after elopement?

We are a Florida couple eloping to New Hampshire in October. Well, technically, it's a destination wedding because there will be a handful of guests there. It's also our "honeymoon" as we'll spend a week there, seeing some of New England.

I thought it would be nice to have a reception back home when we return. It's alot of money, so I was thinking about having the reception on our one year wedding anniversary. Do you think that's ok? Usually people who elope and later have a reception do it immediately after their return. But I figured it would give us a break and time to plan "the other half" of our wedding haha.

I plan on sending out announcements after we get married, but was thinking of combining the announcement with a save the date wording for our reception. Any ideas on how to do that?
