My fiance and I are planning to have a courthouse wedding ceremony this May with close family and friends. Then a few days later we are planning to have a huge wedding reception for everyone to come and celebrate our union.

The problem is, I don’t know that “correct” words or phrase to use on the wedding reception invitations without sounding offensive to those who may have not been invited to the ceremony.

So, what is a good way to word my wedding reception invitations?
