Another invitation wording question.. Please Help (Again)

Okay, so I finally decided on wording. My predicament is this: The ceremony and reception are both at the George Washington Manor. Here is a copy of what I'm putting on the invitation-- now do you think I need add that last part on the bottom, or is it obvious without it? Or should I change the wording? I just want to make sure people know that the ceremony starts at 7 PM at the GW Manor, and the reception follows immediately. I don't have reception cards, and at this point, I am not getting them... so what do you think???

Together with their parents
Robyn Lori Alter
and
Matthew Bielawa III
request the honour of your presence
at their marriage
on
Friday, the twenty-third of September
two-thousand and five
at seven o'clock in the evening
George Washington Manor
1305 Old Northern Boulevard
Roslyn, NY

Reception at the George Washington Manor will immediately follow the ceremony.

I would say 'Reception immediately following' at the bottom. You don't have to repeat GWM.

we had our ceremony too at the same location as our reception. on the invites, at the bottom, i wrote 'reception to follow'

the common person will understand what it means.
