Post Elopement Ceremony

Due to COVID-19 we had to postpone our wedding, scheduled for May 17 to September. We ended up getting married on our original date, just us and our parents. We still want to have our ceremony and big reception to celebrate with our family in the fall. We haven’t told everyone yet about our elopement. Any advice on wording for the invites? I hate the thought of “vow renewals” 4 months after we got married. Any advice for something small we can still say at the alter- more for family and friends without redoing all of our vows? TIA!

    FWIW - while you may hate the words "vow renewal" go ahead and call it the vow renewal because this year, people will understand, and, people are also more forgiving if they're told up front that it's a renewal and not the actual marriage.  

    If you aren't having the vow renewal, it's a "Celebration of Marriage"... "Covid-19 changed our original plans, come celebrate with us the wedding we couldn't have on our original date..."  

    Above all else, do not hide the fact that you already are married.  People are significantly more forgiving if you're open and honest about this regardless of the reason you got married on your original date and having the party in September...
