Mentioning baby in Wedding invites?

I will be 16 weeks pregnant at our wedding this September. My fianc wants to "get it out in the open" so people aren't gossiping about our hasty marriage. He would like to include on the invitation somehow that we're expecting. Any suggestions for wording? This will be a smallish, casual affair and we're both pretty comical. My thought was "bride and groom and bun in the oven invite you to their wedding..."

    I would not.

    Anyone that knows you/would be invited would know you were KU already anyways at 16 weeks, I would think.

    Sounds tacky to me and just makes the "hasty" marriage thing look worse.

    I agree, I don't think you should mention it on the invites. Maybe say something at the reception. Someone I know went to a wedding and the groom along with their bride said something in their toast at the reception. They said everyone was happy and started to clap for them. IMO

    No that sounds super tacky to me. I like the idea of saying something in a toast...

    Coming from a totally different perspective. I don't know when you are ordering your invites.....it's still early in your pg right now....but god forbid something goes wrong & you MC. That invite will be an added painful reminder and will lead to painful questions on your wedding day.

    I'm with PPs maybe a toast to the "happy family" would be a better idea. Congrats on your LO!!!
