Wedding Invitations - wording, grammar, spacing, word wrap, and capitalization - Please check my work!

Does this make sense for the text of the wedding invitation, or does something need to be revised? This is the intended layout of the lines (but will be centered on the invitation). Does the capitalization make sense? What about spelling out the date?

Please join us in joyous celebration as

Jennifer [Last name]

and

Frederick [Last name]

exchange wedding vows on

Saturday, the first of October

Two thousand eleven

at half past three o'clock in the afternoon

Hacienda de las Flores

2100 Donald Drive

Moraga, California

Dinner reception to follow

    You don't really need afternoon and I prefer the wording centered.

    No and in the year.... In the afternoon is ok.

    I like the name to stick out, so I suggest making it a bigger font.

    Maybe a different color, Maybe a different font.

    I don't think you need the space between exchange vows, and the date.

    Please join us in joyous celebration as

    ___ Jennifer [Last name]

    _________ and

    ___ Frederick [Last name]

    Also, I like to put the location and reception to follow just one font size smaller... but maybe it is just me.

    Thanks Hayley! We will have the names in a different font and color from the rest. Good suggestion about making the location and reception one font smaller.
