Ceremony Program Wording

Hi Knoties!
I am working on my ceremony programs and I like how at the end of the ceremony outline it invites guests to a reception (Example: Everyone is invited to proceed DIRECTLY to the Brugeman Lodge at Riverbend Park after the dismissal to join the couple for a reception.)
 
I want people to join us but there is going to be a little bit of a gap between the ceremony and the reception, how do I word this right?
Ceremony is at 2 ending at 3 and we plan on arriving at the church at 6 cocktails starting at 4ish

Re: Ceremony Program Wording

  • Just state clearly, Reception doors open at (so and so time) for cocktails, Dinner with me at (so and so time)

    You always want to be as clear as possible when there is a gap to some degree. We are inviting guests to stay around the ranch to take photos/pet horses/feed animals while we take most of our photos so cocktail hour starts shortly after (not a HUGE gap but a gap and a short drive) they will get to cocktail hour first then we will arrive and dinner will begin
