We are having a private wedding on Halloween because:
1) we like the mood of the holiday and how it always made us feel as kids
2) my grandparents were married on the same day, though I didn't know that until after we had decided.
The point being we chose Halloween for happy, fun and nostalgic reasons. At the end of our casual announcements we were thinking about saying something like "We hope your Halloween was as jubilant as ours!", as a wish to our friends and family and as an acknowledgement of the unique wedding date in a positive way.
Is this completely awful? I do not believe anyone receiving our announcement is anti-halloween. I want the announcements to be very casual and I want them to be for our friends and family and not all about us, if that makes sense.
Thank you for any insight you might have.

Right - and you would only be sending announcements to those not invited to the wedding. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
Well, everyone will be getting them, as we aren't having a wedding, aside from a trip down to the courthouse. I know very well they aren't sent until after the wedding, but I plan on getting them planned and printed before so I have time to address them. I phrased the line "we hope your Halloween WAS as jubilant as ours."
So even though it will be the first week of november, would it be weird to send them best wishes.. after the holiday? I realize how odd that is now.. post best wishes.. so, that's a negative? haha.
