Saturday night weddings - what is your ceremony time if right before the reception?

What time are you putting on the invitation and what time is the ceremony actually starting?

Invitation will call for 7:30 and the ceremony will start at 8. We have to do it after sundown...it really should be after Shabbos which would be after 9pm.

Most weddings I have been to are called fro 7:00 and the ceremony starts at 7:30. My FH feels like it is always so late - you end up eating dinner at like 11:00! We're in discussions though because he wants to put 6:00 on the invite and start the ceremony at 6:30 - I want to put 6:30 and start at 7:00. Is 6:00 too early for a Saturday night? The wedding will be over at midnight.

I am putting 8:30 ( maybe 9:00 still thinking) and that when the ****tail hour starts. The ceremony will be right after that.

My wedding is in January. Does anyone think it matters as far as time goes for the wedding that it gets dark at 4:30?! I'm thinking we can go a little earlier than we would in the middle of the summer.
