We thought the cocktail started at 6:30, but we were wrong and it is starting at 7:30. The place was nice enough to say that we can start the cocktail hour at 7:15. What should I put on the invites? 7:30 or 7:15 for the starting time?
THANKS!

Why don't you put 7:30 people always show up early anyway!

It depends on how your family is.. My finace's family is ALWAYS late.. we put that the ceremony started a half hour earlier on purpose.. I also agree that 7:15 looks awkward.

I think it would be better for people to know it's okay to come earlier, than lose the 15 minutes.

I think 7:15...I tend to think most people are late, so I would want them to know the real time. Plus, if you are doing a formal invite wouldn't you put something like 'a quarter past seven o'clock in the evening' or something like that? I think it sounds just as nice as half past seven.

I don't think there's anything wrong with putting 7:15. It's fine.

Put whatever time your CH is going to start.
I'm not a big fan of putting the wrong time on an invite assuming people will show up either early or late...
