Re: Invitation Timing
I believe 'six forty-five in the evening' is the proper way to go.

Re: Invitation Timing
i did 5:30 for 6 pm ceremony (half past five)
what about doing a quarter of seven for 6:45? or do you think that would be too confusing?

Re: Invitation Timing
I would write it either Six Forty-Five in the evening or A Quarter of Seven in the evening
Both are acceptable

I'm not sure, but I think it is spelled 'forty' (not fourty). Just be careful or check before you print

Re: Invitation Timing
Thre Quarters passed six oclock inthe evening is the proper way. It depends on how elequent you are doing the invites though.
I have 3:15 as my start time and it reads a quarter past three o clock.
The invitation lady worded it and then I approved it.

It's DEFINITELY forty and not fourty. That's one of the most common mispelled number words.

Re: Invitation Timing
Crane's Wedding Blue Book has been my Bible throughout the invitation process and you can access it online. Here is an excerpt re: timing:
I'm being married at 6:45. How should this be read?
The correct wording for 6:45 is 'at three quarters after six o'clock.' Although correct, the wording may appear awkward to many people, so it might be a good idea to change the time of your wedding to six-thirty or seven o'clock.
