My Fianance and I are getting married in Las Vegas, we're from NY.  Everyone who wants to come is invited, we understand not everyone can afford to come so we're also having a "marriage Celebration" when we return. I need help with wording the invitaion to let everyone know they're invited but if they can't make it we understand............... Please HELP!!!!!!!!

On the wedding invitations, I wouldn't mention anything about the at-home reception - invites can be so wordy as is.  I would send a separate invitation a few weeks (depending how much later the reception will be) afterward for the reception.  Or, you could just send a more casual invite only to the folks who declined your wedding invitation - inviting them to dinner or whatever it might be.

I'd spread that info via word of mouth.

Then just send out separate invitations for the AHR in the appropriate time frame for the AHR.
