Response and reception cards

Okay, so how is everyone wording their response card like 'The favour of your reply is requested, etc.' How is everyone doing it?

Also, how are you wording your reception cards? By reception isn't immediately following, my ceremony begins at 3:30 and my cocktail hour starts at 6:30.

Thanks so much!

Here is my wording:
