Nevada-Las Vegas

Help!

We are having a VERY private ceremony(just he and I), in Las Vegas, and we really don't want any guest.  But.....I would like to let family and friends know about it. What should I send out instead of invitations? and should I send them out before we leave or when we return? We have been married before(to each other), and I don't know exactly how to word anything!!! Please Help!!

    I don't know if this is an option for you, but you could have a small party or barbeque when you return home and send out invitations for people to come celebrate your marriage with you... ie We're Married come celebrate with us..... if that isn't an option you would want to send out wedding announcements instead of invitations after you return just letting people know that the two of you are married, you should be able to find wording for wedding announcements on any of the invitation sites or by doing a search in google.. hope that helps!

    You can send out an announcement instead of an invitation. We are having a smaller wedding and sending those out to people who were not invited. We are going to have them ready to ship out the Monday after the wedding. It will say we ARE married instead of an invite saying we WILL be married. There are a lot of cute ones online you can checkout, especially for private ceremonies/destination weddings.

    This is what I am sending out as we are having a local reception when we get home...not sure if you are doing anything like that or not.  I am going to send them out before  the wedding so people have time to plan.  Something like this: Brideand Groomare off to las vegas to be wed on saturday, the tenth of october join these highrollers at their reception reCEption details....

    I would do announcements too. I'm sending mine out to those who weren't invited the Monday after too. I don't know if your ceremony will be available to be viewed via the internet, but that would be nice to include on there that way everyone can watch. If it's not available via the internet then I think the option is up to you whether you want to send them out before or after you wed. Where in Vegas is the ceremony?

    We're only inviting a few people, so everyone else gets the announcement stating"Just letting you know! Karma and Mr. Karma were married on October 10, 2009 in a small ceremony @ the Gracelenad Chapel Las Vegas, Nevada"It's identical to the invite, just different wording.

    announcements ... etiquette says to have someone send them out the day of or day after the wedding, but i think within a few days after should be sufficient.we are going to send out announcements to those who have not been invited.

    I would see if they could broadcast it over the internet. Then you could send out the annoucements before hand and everyone could watch. A lot of my guests, who I know won't be able to make the flight out, are really excited that they can still "be apart" of the ceremony.
