I'm going to order my invitations the beginning of Dec. I was wondering if those of you who are getting married at the hall are you still getting a seperate reception card, or are you just writing on the invitation Reception will follow?? Is this a bad idea? Should I still order reception cards?

I ordered the seperate reception cards, we had a day wedding but wanted it to have a semi-formal feel. I'm not really sure if it was neccesary though.

I got married at the hall, and wrote on the bottom of the invitation, 'Reception to follow'! I don't think it's necessary for an additional card!

We are not putting it on the invitation, I did not think there was a need to put it on a seperate card and I thought it would be nice to save money somewhere

We put 'reception immediately following ceremony' on the bottom of the invite.

We did not order seperate reception cards. the way the invite was written implied the reception was following.
'Christine & Don requests the pleasure of your company at ou marraige on Saturday, Sept. 21'

No separate reception card - don't need it!

I ordered the reception cards, I just thought it looked nicer.

I also order the reception card, just because I liked the way it looked as a package, and it wasn't that much more expensive.

I did order them. More elegant in my opinion.

We are not including a seperate reception card. The last line of the invitaion will say - Cocktail Hour and Reception to follow or Cocktail Hour and Reception Immediately following

I am not ordering a separate card. Trying to cut costs.
If I find a really nice invite that is a little pricey I can justify the cost by not having to buy reception cards.
You can go either way.
As Curly says it adds an elegant touch.

As I read somewhere, having a separate reception card is more formal, but not necessary.

I dont think I will have them either. I'll probably add a line on the bottom of the invitation. I'll use the extra $$ towards someting else. Or like someone else said, justify buying more expensive invitations.
