Dinner after a city hall wedding invite wording?

Meranda, on November 7, 2012 at 1:51 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 4

all of our family and friends know we are getting married at city hall and are planning a dinner to invite everyone to after we get married. so i do not know how to word it. we are having a dinner at an Italian restaurant- its a sit-down 4 course pre-set menu- with beer and wine.

my fiancee and i would be inviting the guests. i seen some like this:

Join us in celebrating the

marriage of

xxx

and

xxxx

with a reception marking the

return from our wedding

ceremony at the

Blair Golf Club

The reception will be held

on Sunday, August 10th, 2018

at 4:00 p.m.

The Diamond Room

1009 Pierce Avenue

Oxford, MS 38655

but i am not sure if "reception" is the right word... and since we are not getting married at a place i guess i should just leave out the "ceremony at the Blair gold club". i guess if i put "xyz restaurant" they would know its a restaurant and not a hall.. right?

any advice help in wording would be appreciated.

    Are you inviting guests to the ceremony or just the dinner reception? If it is just the reception, I don't think there is any reason to mention the location for the ceremony.

    No, only 2-3 people will be going to the ceremony with us. are you sure reception is the appropriate word for a dinner at a restaurant?

    You could call it a "reception dinner" or just dinner.

    I would probably say dinner.
