Need help w/ RSVP/Invitation wording for outdoor ceremony

Moxigrl54, on October 17, 2013 at 1:41 PM Posted in Planning 0 4

I am trying to get all my info ready to give to my friend who is designing our invitations. I'm looking for a cute/fun way to let people know our wedding ceremony will be indoors but the reception with be outdoors....i.e no 9 inch heels, no velvet/hot dresses/suits.....you get the picture Smiley smile I also don't want them to get tooooo dolled up. I would like to keep the attire a bit more casual. Is there anyway to state this on the invitation or rsvp cards?

    We r soon the same thing outdoor ceremony ( weather will be 50-60 ) indoor ceremony. I typed up a seperate little note fit 8 on a 8x11 page. Just stating the ceremony would be outdoors and seating at picnic tables. It was to much to put on invites.... Just an idea

    Or maybe under address / location in smaller font

    ( outdoor reception )

    Really, all you need to do is add a few words to the line in the invitation where you announce the location and time of the reception. If you want to get really fancy, you could put:

    Al Fresco Reception

    immediately following the ceremony

    Location

    Address

    Al Fresco is a nice way of saying outdoors, and it implies that the party is more casual than formal. If you think that's too pretentious for your guests, simply say "Outdoor Reception immediately following the ceremony".

    I would just put it either in an insert or on your webpage

    Here's what my reception card says:

    Please join us for a honky tonk time with

    Drinks, Dinner, and Dancing

    Enjoy cocktails and hors d'oeuvres inside the barn

    Immediately after the ceremony till six thirty

    Then get ready for dinner under the stars at six thirty

    We hope you will enjoy the food

    The dancing will start as soon as dinner is over

    The party will go on until midnight

    Late night snacks will be served at ten
