    We have a really limited amount of space for our daytime so can't invite all our friends partners, but we would love to have them for our evening. How would you let them know this. Do we send a daytime and an evening invite? We sending all our invites at the same time as we are having a small wedding and don't want people to think their partners can come to then let them down

    Clearly mark the day invites for specific guest names and then pop either a note in with the ones where partners are invited to the evening only or a specific evening invitation in with the partners' name on it.

    I like indreamlands idea :). It may also pay to mention it next time you see/ speak to your friends. Just explain to them that you are only having a small wedding and due to numbers you just can't invite there partners (even say sorry if u want to). But u would like them to be at you evening recption. I'm sure they will all understand :). Xx

    I think a separate evening invite with partners name on popped in with your friends invite will soften the blow more and still make them feel important, plus makes it totally clear that they are evening only x

    When we were talking to someone about our invites, she said she was doing a load where someone was inviting a lot of work friends, she was having the day invites made for the work friends and then having evening invites made up for their partners which fit inside the day invites...

    So basically yeah, I think send out day invites with an evening invite inside

    If you don't know them that well then I would send the day invites to just friends and then send another evening one with both their names on it, that way it should not cause any confusion. If they are true friends they will understand that you cannot accommodate everyone.
