Please Help - Invitation Wording

Hey everyone,

I'm having my ceremony at the reception hall and then we are hosting a lunch for everyone at the reception hall. There is no dancing or anything. The ceremony is at one in the afternoon and will be quick. I'm just wondering what you think I should put as the last line of the invitation. I want to make sure people know they are gonna get a full meal, but I don't want people expecting a full typical wedding dance party. The options I thought of were:

1. Luncheon immediately following
2. Lunch reception to follow
3. or just 'reception to follow' and they can figure out its lunch.


Thanks!

I think if you are just having food, than I would put 'Luncheon to Follow' because when I hear the word 'reception' I think of the whole shibang with the dancing and everything.

ITA. If you put reception to follow...people will expect the average recption...So i would go with luncheon.

I agree, I think 'Luncheon To Follow' would be the best way to put it.
