Canadian-raised rocker Sebastian Bach and Suzanne Le are inviting fans to attend their wedding reception — for a price.

Rockbar Theater in San Jose, Calif., is offering "limited" tickets to the couple's Aug. 22 "Rock N Roll Wedding Extravaganza" for $300 apiece. Despite what the venue is calling the event, the public isn't actually invited to the ceremony, just the reception, which will follow the wedding.

Bach took to social media to clarify this point on Tuesday.

"Attention Planet Earth: No, nobody in the world is, or ever was, 'selling tickets to our wedding,'" he wrote on Facebook. "Especially not me. Our wedding is a private family affair which is not open to the public. We are, however, having an All-Star Jam Concert Party Shindig Rock N' Roll Extravaganza Bash, at the reception, after our wedding. The concert at the reception is open to the public. Let's rock! We are looking forward to having a great time. Come on out & party with us on our Special Day!"

Le, a Hawaiian beauty-pageant contestant, posted on Twitter Tuesday that the couple had been away on tour and was not involved in setting ticket prices for the event.

She continued that she and Bach were "not charging people to our wedding" and added that only the venue and a charity of the couple's choosing stood to profit.

For those interested in attending the event, the web site notes a dress code: "rockstar chic."
