AHR Invitation Wording

[clfaidl2]

Thanks for the website and cute ideas!

I have a question on how to do the working for times. I am going to indicate

'cocktails & Hor dourves begin at 7'

but I want ppl to know that that at 8pm we are beginning speeches, wedding video, and 1st dance. I just dont know what to call it. I don't just want to say 'reception begins at 8' since some people may take that to mean they can show up at any time after 8- I dont want ppl arriving in the middle of speeches. Any advice? Thanks!

I love all the ideas! This is what I was thinking about doing...let me know what y'all think.

 

Option 1:

As the sun sets low in the Key West sky

Derek & Kendra will become man and wife!

 

Join us as we celebrate their marriage with a reception at...

 

*Reception info to follow*

 

I don't know if I should say "will become" or "became" man and wife since the inviations will go out right around the time of our wedding.

 

Option 2:

With their toes in the sand

and a sunset sky

Derek & Kendra will become man & wife!

 

The couple will be married in a small beach ceremony

on August 9th among family and friends

 

PLease join us as we celebrate their marriage with a reception...

We are getting married in January, but won't have our AHR until late spring or early summer ....weather is too unpredictable in Minnesota in Jan! Any tips on how/when to send out the AHR invites?
