Check my wording. I'd like some input. Or maybe I need some approval. This is a lot right now.

"Due to current recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control, we have made the difficult decision to postpone our wedding celebrations. We feel like we are making a responsible choice with everyone's health and safety in mind.We look forward to sharing the date of our wedding reception with you once we reschedule."
Anything I should add? Do I blatantly need to spell out that we are still getting married, just without them?
It will be wedding party, parents, siblings, grandparents, his 2 aunts, my 3 great aunts. And a cousin. So it's not all immediate family. But it is CLOSE family. (I have no aunts or uncles, and am very close with my great aunts and uncles.)

You might say: Following recommendations of the CDC due to the COV-19 virus we have decided to cancel our large wedding and reception. Instead we are getting married in an intimate private ceremony. However, the actual reception and celebration will definitely be rescheduled for the future when the health crisis is over. You will get more information when the plan has been finalized. We look forward to celebrating with all of you and hope you realize our decision was in the best interest of friends and family. We thank everyone for their understanding.

I would just add that you have decided to have an intimate ceremony now but the reception will be rescheduled for a later time.

I agree with PP's that I would mention that you are getting married, just at an intimate ceremony with a formal reception to follow when conditions allow.
