I have usually seen Reception immediately following. This would include the coctail hour and most people realize that.

Re: Reception wording
I think you can leave out cocktails - it's just assumed when you say reception to follow. I am using - 'Reception to follow immediately'

Re: Reception wording
I think you can leave off the word cocktails. I believe you only need to specify cocktails, when that is all that you're having - so that people don't expect a large meal. 'Reception' - implies that there will be a cocktail hour.

Re: Reception wording
I have on mine Reception immediately following the ceremony. I think it is safe to say that the guests assume that there will be a cocktail hour.

Re: Reception wording
We just used 'Reception Immediately following' I think people understood that included a cocktail hour
