Hi, just wanted to get a few opinions.
We're having a small winter wedding (30 people) at a resort an hour away from our home (does that qualify as a destination wedding?) Question: Can we have another party in the summer (fancier backyard style) and invite the other 50 or so people we would have liked to come but couldn't afford to take to the resort? We don't want to seem like we're fishing for gifts, but we'd like to celebrate with them.
Do we call this party a reception? Just a family party? We wanted to have things like wedding pics out etc. but we don't want people to feel like second best.
Thoughts appreciated!
