Question

How can i word a reception card to include cocktail hour?

Answer 1

If it's a wedding, then people usually assume there will be a cocktail hour.

If your ceremony ends, then the bride and groom go take pictures or whatever then come back an hour later...then just say, "Reception immediately following ceremony"

I don't think you need to call out that there is a cocktail hour if everything is one right after another (ceremony-cocktail hour- reception).

That's what I did anyway...

Answer 2

Hi

If this is a wedding reception then simply say on your invitation, Cocktail Hour to follow shortly after the Wedding Ceremony.

Are you having finger foods or any eats at all?

If you're not then I would make sure this was conveyed on the invitation as well, so people know.

Answer 3

There will be a reception with light hors d'oeuvres, followed by dinner and dancing.
