Wording for Invites - I'm lost

Hi girls, I'm working on my DIY invites and have no idea how I should word all of the cards. I am okay with the invitation wording but what should the RSVP card and reception card say?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

m_________________

_______ accpet with pleasure

_______decline with regret


the reception card can say:


Reception to follow at ::time of cocktail hour::
at ::name of hall:

Thanks girls! If my reception is in the day time (1-6) can I still call it 'dinner'?

I think it's fine to call it dinner. If I went to an afternoon wedding, I probably wouldn't eat again for the rest of the day.
