- Couple desires a small private ceremony for exchanging vows.
- Couple is getting married at a destination wedding far from home and cannot afford to pay for the transportation of all of their guests to that destination.
- Couple elopes spontaneously, but would still like to celebrate their union with family and friends.
These types of invitations are typically called “Reception Only” or “Post Wedding” invitations.
