Our ceremony will be in the same location at the reception. It is a party center. The staff sets up the tables but puts the chairs on the dance floor for the ceremony. Then, the guests go outside for the receiving line or whatnot (I'm told this is very normal because I thought it was a little strange for guests to walk outside. I guess this part will be the equivalent of the rice/bubbles after leaving the church) and it takes under 15 minutes for all the staff to move the 200 chairs back to the tables. Then, guests come back in and start "cocktail hour" while we take family pictures (we are taking most pictures before).
So my question is - Do I include a reception card in my invitation? Normally it just has the church info on the invite, and a separate card in the envelope for reception information. Do we just put our location and say "reception to follow immediately" or something like that? Please tell me the wording you used if you had a similar situation! Thanks!
