Reception card wording

Confused about the wording. What are you using? Our cocktail hour is not immediately following the ceremony (an hour later) and at a different location.

Re: Reception card wording

I usually see cocktails, dinner and dancing. I posted mine before, but I wanted to highlight that the cocktail hour starts at 6:30 so I showed that separately.

Re: Reception card wording

I just went to do invites the other day.

This is the wording for the reception card

Reception
AT Six O'clock
Jericho Terrace
Mineola, New York

She said not to add street addressed b/c they are on the direction cards that get inserted in the enevolpe

I would leave it as simple as possible since people get confused very easly.
