For budget reasons, we're planning an immediate family only ceremony and simple luncheon the day of the wedding.
But we plan on doing a "just married" party for extended family and friends. It will be an informal house party with food like pizza and wings and lots of craft beer. We plan on having a guestbook there with images from the wedding. And if possible, a 3-4 minute highlight video of the wedding to present on "the big screen".
We do not expect any gifts for this party, we just want to be able to share our wedding with friends.
So, I was wondering how you would feel if one of your friends invited you to an informal "just married" party?

Personally I'd be kind of happy I don't have to sit through a formal ceremony and reception, and that I don't feel obligated to bring a gift.
