Fake send off

I've never liked the idea of a fake send off but we will be staying pretty late partying and I want my older family members to be part of the send off. So I was thinking of having a send off around 10. And then going and changing and have the MC announce that we will be returning for an after party....

Do you think to many people will leave if I do this. I know the older people will leave and people who have kids will leave. I'm okay with that but I want all of our friends and some family to stay.

    I don't like fake send offs. When I hear send off I grab my things and head to the car after... I always feel like it dampens the party mood too

    Don't use your guests as props for sparkler photos. Fake send offs (and real send offs) are the biggest orchestrated buzzkill at any wedding I've been to. I see no point in paying a photographer to capture fake memories for your Pinterest board.
