Wedding invitation wording

in Wedding Invitations & Paper
I am planning a wedding in October of this year and we are having a small intimate wedding ceremony. We only want about 20 people to be at our ceremony and the rest are invited to the dinner and reception after. How do we word the invites?  We were planning on inserting a special fun invite for the people who are invited to our ceremony.  Any suggestions???

    A "special fun invite"?  No.  This would be dismissive of the importance of your ceremony.
    This is the wording that is used:

    The pleasure of your company is requested
    at the wedding reception of
    Bride's Full Name
    and
    Groom's Full Name
    Day, the date of October
    two thousand fourteen
    time o'clock
    Venue
    Address
    City, State

    The ceremony insert is as follows:  (non-church)

    Your presence is requested at the wedding ceremony.
    Time o'clock
    Location
    Address
    City, State

    I do not understand why you feel the need to do this.  Expect many regrets.

    It is very rude to invite guests to the reception but not the ceremony. Why are you doing this?

    This is not rude, but most guests will be disappointed to not see the actual ceremony.  It is only permissible with private, immediate family only ceremony.  I wouldn't attend something like this, personally, though.
