wedding announcement / AHR

[frmh]

I need help on this one. sorry in advance its gonna get long

We decided on a DW to avoid the costs (we're footing the bill). I've only told our immediate family (parents and brothers). The only other guests apart from immediate family is a "friend" (my step-cousin) and her boyfriend.

So far, these are pretty much the only ones who know about our plans.

Last night, my fiance was asking me if I told any other family members.

Which I haven't. (I don't want the drama of "why weren't we invited?")

I would like to let everyone know what our plans are, but without "inviting" them.

We don't want to shock everyone by telling that we got married in the AHR invitation.

I would like to let everyone know that we are planning to get married, and would like them to join us at the AHR.

How do I do this? I need a lot of help with wording, etc. We are getting very close. I would like to deliver these within the next few days and into next week.

We are getting married! Please join us for a reception when we return at... place and time.
