     How to word time on wedding invitations  

I am getting ready to purchase my invitations, but I am unsure on what time to put on them. I want the ceremony to start at 7:00 pm and I don't want people showing up at exactly 7:00. How should we word the wedding invitations so that the guests come on time or before 7 PM, not right at 7?

Thank You

Dear Wants to Start,

Typically the invitation would read, "Parent's name request ... for their daughter...and Mr. ...date, time, place, R.S.V.P. The time to print on the invitations is the exact time of the wedding. It is understood that the wedding will begin at that time. If you are worried, there is nothing wrong with adding a line at the bottom of the invitation that the wedding will begin precisely at seven o' clock.

Congratulations to you and yours.
