Wording for Reception card

CH starts at 7pm and the reception starts at 8. there is also a hospitality hour starting at 6pm for anyone getting there early.

How would you word this on the reception card of the invitation?

TIA!

Please join us as the celebration continues...

or...

Reception to follow...

followed by:

the name of the RH, address and what time the CH will begin.
You don't need to put down that the CH will begin at 7pm and the RH will begin at 8pm.

Just put the time the CH starts, people will know the CH will come first.

Do you have a wedding website? We put that on the website and then I plan on putting just the CH hour time

our friends had a hospitality hour before their ceremony - i think they did it via word of mouth.
or just only include the hospitality hour on the invite - dont bother with a sep. cocktail hour time.
