What to Write on the Reception Card?

I am having my ceremony and reception at WM so I don't need a reception card, but I think it would be a nice touch. However, I am having an afternoon reception CH 12:30-1:30 and reception 1:30-5:30. What do I write on the reception card b/c I can't say "please join us for cocktails, dinner and dancing" - what's between lunch and dinner? I feel like if I write "please join us for cocktails, lunch, and dancing" it sounds wierd and totally informal. Anybody have thoughts on this?

Re: What to Write on the Reception Card?

first, i would say you definitely don't need a reception card, it'll just be a repeat of information that is on the invitation. on the bottom of the invitation i would just say 'reception immediately following'. or if you really want a reception card write on it "Cocktail hour and reception immediately following".

You could maybe write

Please join us for cocktail hour and reception immediately following the ceremony in honor of the new
Mr. & Mrs. Smith
