Re: wording for reception after afternoon family wedding [In reply to]

Dear Leealogg,

I am assuming that these guests are reception only guests, as it is viewed as impolite to keep guests waiting hours in between events--wedding and then reception. This template can be found on our Wedding Invitation Etiquette page.

The pleasure of your company
is requested at the
wedding reception of
Bride
and
Mr. Groom
Friday, the fourth of May
at three o’clock
Location

(Optional: Black tie requested)

RSVP

Address

Best wishes,
Rebecca Black, Etiquette Now
