"Your attendance means more to me than any gift."

Don't use the word "coming," which has an unfortunate slang meaning.

okay great. Is there any way we don't use the word gift explicitly. something like "Your attendance means more to us". plus any other ending line I want use that can come after all the wedding/venue details like "Looking forward to meeting you soon"? not sure if that sounds good on a wedding card? please advise

I'm not exactly MIss Manners, and my advice is germane to US custom only. If you don't want gifts, you'd better mention gifts. Otherwise those invited will feel obligated to give you a gift.

The fact that you've invited someone to your wedding is formal indication enough that you're looking forward to seeing them there. Even if both of you know that's a lie.
