I'm getting married at a church and then our reception is a couple miles away. I'm working on my programs right now. On the very back cover of my program is blank. I was going to put " following the ceremony,please join us in continuing the celebration at..... "( and the address of the venue). Should i just include the address or do i put directions from the church to the reception venue? I don't want to have it all cluttered bc on my programs itself there is alot of writing. I typed out just the address and i like it but i don't know what etiquette says about it.

    I think you don't have to provide address/directions on the program if you provided them in the invite.  Though some people might apprciate it if they forgot to bring the invite with them.

    Could you put that line about joining for the reception and then put in a map?  (Though I don't know how to or how hard/easy it would be to do)

    I ordered the free postcards from Vistaprint and had directions listed on them (using the same background as our STDs from earlier).  They will be placed next to the programs.

    I think it's really nice to do. One less thing for your guests to worry about.

    My cousin didn't want a huge program, so she just had little direction cards that were passed out with the programs. It works really well.

    I would worry that that comment would have people who may come to the church to see you fi get married nut weren't actually invited to the reception. I know there will be quite a few clients of mine my mother's lady friends who want to see me get married but are not actually invited.
