    Put whichever you feel sounds better...either way, no one is going to show up in the morning. Sometimes this etiquette stuff makes my head spin :o This would be one of those times : )

    Neither. Your guests can figure that you aren't getting married at 5 in the morning.

    I've found documentation both ways -- e.g., http://blog.invitationbox.com/2009/03/25/invitation-etiquette-your-faqs-answered/

    We put afternoon for our 5pm wedding.

    We should have just put PM! Too late for us. Smiley smile

    We just said "at half past 5" for our 5:30 ceremony. Fingers crossed none of our guests are clueless enough to show up at 5:30 AM !
