I know it's bad form to put an incorrect time on your invitation for the ceremony. However, I am wondering if I can phrase it like:
Ceremony begins at 5:30pm
Please arrive by 5:15pm
My ceremony is outside in a garden by a mansion and the bridal party will be in position behind the garden on a path. This means that if anyone shows up even just a couple minutes late, they are going to be coming up behind us and need to pass us in order to get to their seats.
