My ceremony starts at 2pm and I put 2pm on my invite. Was I supposed to put an earlier time on my invite?

I think people know better that they have to be there promptly.

I put 3:30 and I plan on having the ceremony start at 3:45. I only did this because I am chronically late to everything. It just made me feel better. But I have been to plenty of weddings where it was not done and it worked out fine. I would not worry about it at all. People know they have to be on time.

Re: ceremony time & invites question?
I did because:
1. I know my people they will be late 2. Ceremony is at reception site and cocktail hour is immediately following
I really won't be that bummed if people do not show up to the ceremony on time but I would like for them to make it to the cocktail hour which I am paying for.

I put an earlier church time, but the actual start time for the cocktail hour. I don't want my guests to be early to that b/c they won't get served!

Mine starts at 11, I put 10:45 b/c in order to make my cocktail hour I need the ceremony to start promptly so I can leave with the BP, get pics taken, and get to the cocktail hour.

My ceremony starts at 11 am. I put it for 10 am. Both of our families tend to be late for functions. They will just have to wait for me on my day. Marie

Our ceremony will start at 7:30...but the invites will ask them to arrive at 7...where they will be greeted with champagne & fruit. I would think a half hour is plenty of leeway for stragglers!

I put 6:30 on the invite and that's the time the ceremony atually starts. I was worried at first, but I'm going to spread the word for pwoplw to be prompt.
