you guys are the best!

FH thought it sounded awkward, but I wanted to see if you guys thought the same

i will change it to the above!

Shouldn't it be two thousand eleven - without the and?

I'm pretty positive on this one...

I put two thousand eleven because I always remember my grammar teacher saying when you hear the word 'and' that it where you put the decimal.

I wish I could quote but I'm on my phone.... Two-thousand eleven is gramatically correct... I made sure in my invite since I teach English

thank you!

I emailed my invite lady!

THIS
except from what i have been told, grammatically there is no 'and' between the year (even though many people do put it)
I was told this is the site to look at for all wedding
related grammar questions...
http://www.emilypost.com/wedding-invitations-and-announcements/335-wording-formal-wedding-invitations

I think it sounds very nice. The only thing I would change is instead of 'Half after five' I would write 'Half past five'

Of course, that is just my opinion. Either way, it sounds and looks beautiful!
