Ok so Chris and I decided we want a very small wedding just like close family and friends. We're talkin 60-75 peeps. Would it be ok if we just sent actual ceremony invites to the family and friends and then sent a seperate invite for the reception? I kinda like this idea. What are yalls opinions?

So some people invited to ceremony only and others invited to both ceremony and reception? If that is the case, then no... you will uspet many people. Most people consider the traditions of the reception to be just as, if not more important than the ceremony. If it cost, only invite those who really want, keep it really small.

Its your wedding sweety-you can do what you want to

I *think* she was saying some people will be invited to the ceremony and reception while others will just be invited to the reception? Is that right? If so I think that would be ok. I had a friend who did it that way because her church was just so small it really couldn't hold as many people as she wanted to invite. :)

lol that's not that small... though IMO, if you're inviting people to the reception, they should have been invited to the wedding too... to me, if i got an invite to a reception without a wedding invite, i would think i was being invited just to recognize the wedding (ie give presents)

but 75 isn't that small... that was the size of our wedding :D

I think that sounds fine and it's your wedding it's YOU who you should worry about making happy. :)

I agree. Some people may feel that they weren't important enought to be at the ceremony and you just want gifts. It is your day though, so long as people know your intentions are good, I'm sure it wouldn't matter.
