30 minutes is really early it seems. We printed 5:30 on our invites, and we'll probably start at about 5:35 or 5:40. I figure to give the people who show up right at 5:30 in the parking lot time to get upstairs and grab a seat. If you are showing up 20 minutes after the start time on the invite, you are just rude. Cocktail hour starts at 6, so there is no way I'm waiting for stragglers any longer than 10 minutes.

Yes, this is what I was saying.  It's insane to start the second you call the ceremony for.

I think it's insane that grown ass adults are habitually late for social events, and yet these same adults seem to be able to make it to work on time.

This!!  H is this way.  He's almost always on time for work, yet he usually runs late to everything else: social events, church, random events I'm covering for my job.  I am always early, and I can not comprehend how his head works.  He's getting better about it, thankfully.
