    Our reception will probably start around 4:30/5 depending on how long pictures last. (Our ceremony starts at 3). I don't have a set time for when we will leave, I want to enjoy it as long as we can. We only have a 45 minute drive back to FI/our house.

    ETA: I don't think we would be there any later then 9 or 10

    Our ceremony is at 5 and cocktail hour is from 6-7, so the reception will officially start at 7/7:15 and we'll leave either at 10:30 or 10:45.

    Mine is a little later than everybody's but still about the same amount of time. The way our venue books events forced us to start our ceremony at 6 which puts the reception starting at about 7 - 7:30 and then we will leave around 11.

    Our ceremony starts at 5:00 which will probably last about 30 minutes and we're planning on having the reception done around 11:00, at least thats when we have our DJ until!  We're actually staying in the same place that our wedding is going to be since it doubles as a bed and breakfast so we won't have to worry about travelling anywhere.

    Ceremony: 5:30
    Cocktail Hour: 6-7
    Reception: 7-11

    We're not leaving early.  We're staying at the same hotel as everyone else is after the wedding and having an "after party" so who knows when that will end.

    We are staying at our venue so no leaving early. But our wedding is on a Friday night, so that is why we are starting a little later than most.

    We are definitely not leaving early, least of all for the honeymoon since that won't be until next December or January!  Our reception ends at 11, regardless, and I anticipate staying the whole time.

    Our ceremony starts at 6 and the reception is from 6:30 to 11:30 (you literally walk inside for the reception). 

    We are staying for the entire thing, helping pack up, and then will be heading to a hotel (likely) near the airport to stay the night and head out early the next day for our honeymoon.

    Cocktail hour: 6-7
    Dinner, music, etc: 7-12

    We're giving the DJ a heads up that we need to be out by midnight, so he will wind down and end it by 11:30 so there is time for everyone to clear out. Chris and I want to stay until the very last person leaves - just so we can say goodbye to our last guests.

    We're not having a cocktail hour, and we don't plan on leaving early.

    Our ceremony is 7-7:30ish on site.  Cocktail hour is 7:30-8:30.  We have a 5 hour open bar starting at the beginning of cocktail hour so that would take us until 12:30.  We will have to drive about 10 mins to our B&B (same owners so we get a free night).  Luckily FI doesn't drink so I have a DD anyway.  We do not plan on leaving early as we are not leaving for our honeymoon until 10 days later.
