So I am getting married next summer on one of the small Scottish islands. We had originally booked for a ceremony and reception on the mainland but have decided to have a small ceremony with family on the island followed by a nice meal and drinks and have a reception at a later date in our home town.
because the island is small accommodation goes quickly so my plan is to send save the dates out soon so people have time to make arrangements but when sending the invites should I include on these the info for the separate reception or send separate invites for this?
We are inviting two sets of aunts and uncles to the ceremony however our cousins who still live with their parents will only be invited to the reception on the mainland. I feel if I send their parents an invite to the full wedding it would be rude to send them a reception intive at a later date as it will be later in to next year. I feel I should add we’re close to our aunts and uncles but not to our cousins.
any advice please? Thanks
