We're semi eloping but letting parents kno how would that work?

After long conversations and lack of interest form both sides we've decided on "semi eloping". We'll have our kids with us and it's not like we're not telling anyone, but we won't have any reception nor send invitations. Our families are aware we're getting married and we've even told them of our date but doubt they'll remember. So do we casually remind them or simply let it be? We just can't make ourselves spend ££ on people who are very ambivalent about the whole thing, who most likely won't understand the concept l, and that we don't even know if we'll be able to invite due to Covid. Wedding is in April next year.

Just go get married. No need to announce it. Congratulations

Thank you! DP thinks we still need to inform them but toe that seems more problematic than not.

if you have already told them the date and that you aren't having a big "do" then you have done all you need to. no further action needed.

Make the announcement when it's all done and you've had the wedding you really want with the people who really matter. Those who feel done out of a 'do' don't matter.
