afternoon or evening???

I need help guys. This might sound silly, but my ceremony is at 5pm on friday, april 29th. On the invitation do I put 5 in the afternoon or 5 in the evening????

I would go with evening if you are trying to portray a more formal tone.

That'sa actually correct. 5pm is NOT evening and would be considered wrong. The evening starts at 6pm. 5pm is still the afternoon.

My invitations say evening...

(I was told to use 'evening' by the owner of the store where I bought the invitations).
