Ladies I have a lot of OOT guests. I included directions given to me by the hall for the reception. Is it necessary to provide directions to the church too even though the address is already printed on the invitation?

Re: need help!
honestly, I'm an organization freak, and have moved 5 times, so I know how it feels to have no clue where you are driving!!
I would type up
Hotel to church
church to reception hall
reception hall back to hotel
but that's just OCD me!

Me, too!
I think OOT guests really appreciate that. If you don't feel like you can include it all with your wedding invites, you could send OOT guests a separate card with all the directions they'll need. I think they'd appreciate that.
ETA - You should also make sure the directions given to you by the hall are accurate / will be understood by OOT guests. Sometimes what seems clear to LIers isn't as clear to someone less familiar with the area... But that may just be me since I have a HORRIBLE sense of direction!

We also have many OOT guests and my church gave us a direction sheet that we made photocopies of. It would definitely help out the guests who are unfamiliar with the area.

Absolutely!! Your OOT guests won't necessarily have access to a computer and MapQuest.
