How do I say on the invites guests don't have to attend the registry ceremony?

How do I say on the invites that people are welcome to our registry wedding but not expected? That we really only wanted a small personal ceremony but didn't want anyone put out so if they are really keen to go they can. Otherwise we'll just see them at the reception.

Hi there! This is an interesting one :) My mum went through the same scenario when she was married! This is what she had at the bottom of her invitations: "Due to the limited space at the registry office, please let us know if you would like to attend the ceremony when you RSVP. Otherwise we look forward to celebrating with you at the reception."

Luckily only 6 or so people showed up, so it didn't take up too much room. Let me know what you end up deciding on & all the best!

Cheers, Lava x

Perhaps:

"As there is minimal space in the registry office, guest attendance limited. However, if you would like to come, please advise us on your RSVP. We look forward to celebrating with you."

It's a tricky one, but I'm sure you'll find the answer.

Best of luck with your wedding!
