Post-Nuptial Wedding Reception

Many couples planning a destination wedding, will have a private wedding ceremony with a larger wedding reception upon their return home. One such customer is Mary Clark who sent us the following message (for privacy we've changed her name.)


Hello! My name is Mary Clark and I will be getting married soon and it is now time to think about invitations the only problem I am running into is that my fiancé and I are getting married on Maui and can’t figure out how to work out the invitations because we won’t be having a ceremony here locally? Do you guys have invitations or ideas to a “reception in celebration of a wedding?” If you could let me know asap that would be great.

Our response was:
Dear Mary,
Congratulations, I can just imagine how beautiful your wedding will be on Maui!  A tropical themed post-wedding reception back home sounds like a great way to celebrate your marriage with family and friends.  Since your ceremony will have already taken place, play your ceremony video during your wedding reception so everyone can feel as though "they were there." 

Are you planning to invite friends and family to Maui or are you going to have a private ceremony with a post-wedding reception at home?    If others will be included at the ceremony, I would have a small number of wedding ceremony invitations printed for those guests invited to Maui and another wedding reception invitation for everyone else invited to the post-wedding reception following your return.  We have several "beach wedding invitations" that would be great for your ceremony invitation and/or your wedding reception invitation. 
You can choose to send a separate wedding announcement and reception invitation or you can word your wedding reception invitation to reflect both.  A few wording examples of post-wedding reception invitations would be:
