Post elopement party invite wording

Calitocountry, on March 6, 2019 at 1:07 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 1 5
Since it is both our second weddings we decided to elope privately in Teton National Park on May 31, 2019 and have a small get together afterward to celebrate.

We we plan on reserving a private area during a larger public concert series at a winery. We have great memories there as do our friends. We were thinking snack trays and a cake and people can enjoy the live band playing. thing is this would happen the following Sunday after we elope so I am not sure how to word the invites.

maybe “Post elopement party” and note the date we will be married and the date of the party?

    Typically I hear these called Celebration of Marriage parties. So your invite could read: Please join blank and blank for a celebration of marriage at ____ winery

    Here's an example sort of like I said:

    I'd just send a more casual invite. Something like "We are getting hitched! Please join us for a casual reception at the XX concert series. Food & drinks will be served." or whatever works.

    That’s an interesting wording. I like it, I just hope his family wouldn’t be confused about when the wedding took place.

    That feels like a bit more “us”. Thanks for the feedback.

    We are having an intimate, immediate family only wedding. We plan to invite extended family, friends, and coworkers to a casual party later on in the Summer. My plan is to send a wedding announcement/party invite all in one. I haven't created the template yet, but in my mind it reads:

    "We got hitched! We would love for you to join us for the only part of the wedding you were interested in anyways, the after party"....date , location, blah blah blah.

    Following for other ideas!
