Hi all!   We are getting married in Mexico in November and almost 30 family and friends will be joining us.  After the ceremony we will be having a mini-reception (dinner and dancing) that evening.  We are then having an AHR in January and expect about 150 people.   I was wondering if you have any recommendations/comments about sending the Mexico invite and the AHR invite together to all 150 people?  Do you typically send the Destination invite and AHR invite separately and at separate times?   The invitation would include: -Mexico ceremony -Mexico 'reception' - menu choices and response card -AHR Information -AHR Response Card   I was thinking about sending them together so those that can't go to Mexico don't feel left out and they know that there will be a party to celebrate.  The fiance disagrees haha.  Any help is appreciated!

We are planning to do the same - send both Mexico & AHR invites together. Anyone aware of any threads on this?

How are people wording their AHR invites if they are being sent out before the DW takes place?

For example I invited 55 people to Mexico, and have 100 invites for the AHR. (Keeping it small). We're having our AHR 1 week after the DW so invites for the AHR need to go out well before the trip. Everything I think of sounds like:

 

"______ and ______ will be getting married on the beaches of Mexico on May 26, 2015 (WHICH YOUR NOT INVITED TO), please join us as we celebrate one more time at our local cocktail reception on June 6, 2015"

 

Or am I the only heartless one that had a separate guest list for DW and AHR?? I can't afford to bring everyone to Mexico because my reception costs $100 a person!

We had separate invite lists also. It was a tough decision on the wording.

Here's a picture of the wording we settled on for our invite.
