I am doing pocketfold invitations, and one of my inserts is an invitation to our "welcome dinner". Which is really just a rehersal dinner, but everyone is invited (we are lucky enough to have a very large building at our business that lets us have a lot of guests. We're just making a ton of food and whoever wants to come can stop by). Now, our wedding is out of town for most people, about 2 hours drive for most of our family. But we're having it at a time that allows for travel on both sides (2 pm ceremony, reception over at 8) so we don't expect to have a ot of people coming in the night before.
So to get to the point, what I'm asking is how to put the following information on a card so it sounds good:
a) Mr. & Mrs. T (his parents) are hosting a casual dinner the night before the wedding.
b) You're welcome to come if you'll be in town
c) Call mrs. T. to rsvp if you want to come
d) It will be at such and such a place.
Its kind of hard to say "stop by if ya want" on an invitation. Here's what I've come up with:
Mr. & Mrs. T would like to invite you to a casual welcome dinner.
If you will be joining us for the weekend, please come eat, drink and celebrate with the bride and groom!

Please call 555-5555 if you would like to attend.
Any thoughts? TIA!!!
