Reception only - when do guests show up? On time or fashionably late?

People know to show on time or early. Only those who are rude and don't care about others show up late.

Make sure to have an alternative to champagne as many do not enjoy it.

Thank you! I am hoping so. I wasn't sure since it is reception/party only if people would be fashionably late, as people are even late to ceremonies...

And, yes, we will have the full bar open the full time, just champagne will only be added to the list for the first hour.

Only rude people are late to ceremonies. The majority will arrive early.

I think most people will arrive on time!! But it could be a little bit more of a 'rolling entrance' for the first twenty minutes or so!

Most will likely arrive on time or early! But with it being a reception only, you may have some who kind of see it as an after party and may be fashionably late. Like Lynnie said, I would expect people to kind of roll in within the first 30 minutes or so!
