Wedding Invitations & Paper

Announcement and/or Reception Wording

My fiance, now husband, and I eloped last month.  We are hosting a cocktail reception for family and friends in April.  Is there a formal or proper way to word invitations to our reception?  Everyone is in on the news, so it wouldn't be a true 'announcement'  and we do not want to be too casual.  Any tips or advice?

Thank you,

    Dresses may be easier to take in than let out, but guest lists are not. -- kate51485
