It doesn't sound like it's necessary, particularly since everyone will already know about it. We're having a second, much less formal party for my FH's family/friends who cannot make it up for the wedding itself in my part of the country and we're probably just going to send out regular old packaged party invites (like you would just pick up at the store for a birthday party) for that one. Maybe you could do something similar if you definitely want the invitees to have something on paper?
The only reason I say you need that extra card is that people forget the darnedest things when it comes to weddings, it may just be better to ensure they have another little piece of paper that tells them the same thing for the umptenth time over.

We'll be sending out invites starting next week. They're standard "blah blah getting married on blah blah at blah blah", with a business-card sized insert with our phone numbers and website for RSVP.
Now, we're having separate receptions 2 months after the wedding. The people who are invited to the receptions know this, also, on the RSVP page of our site, guests choose which event to attend (or all three). We did not have the reception info on the main invite as we still haven't figured out venues for them and we were pressed for time to print.
Here's the question. My fiance says there's no need to now print and send new cards to the people invited to these receptions with the details. They'll get the info from the website, or from us directly. My instinct is that it's propoer etiquette...to get just a simple "Blah and blah will be getting married on blah, please join them for a reception, etc.". But I see his point...everyone who is invited to them already know. Just an extra cost?
