You could write half past six in the evening.

Re: invitation time wording

You should probably write out the word three as well.

Re: invitation time wording

I would write half past six in the evening only if you can change it to three o'clock in the evening. If you can't then I would stick with all numbers.

Re: invitation time wording

It should be:

Three o'clock in the afternoon

Half past six in the evening

-Past (not passed)
-No dashes
-No numbers
-Only use 'o' clock' if it's on the hour
