Hello all!
So we are planning on having a ceremony at an Arboretum that is near and dear to our hearts. It has a limit of 40 guests total (but it is free so that is ok with us).
We are planning on doing a dinner with those guests immediately after the ceremony and then leaving for a cross country road trip that day or the next. We have very large families and other friends that may not make the small guest list so when we return from our trip we hope to have a post honeymoon "welcome back" celebration.
Does anyone have any good idea of how to do this? We were thinking of doing some sort of announcement that gets mailed the day we get married. It would explain the small guest list and invite friends/family to our reception when we return from our honeymoon.
PS- I've been educated on the Pretty Princess Day here on the Knot and will NOT be wearing my dress etc. at this get together. Any suggestions/thoughts welcome!
Re: Small Ceremony w/Post Honeymoon Celebration - Need Ideas!
That's it. No other details. You send out the party invitation just like an invitation for any other party. It is not related to your wedding.
Just send the invitations to the post-wedding celebration without giving any explanations.
