If the reception and ceremony are at the same location, just have a line on the invite saying "reception to follow immediately" or "reception to follow ceremony"...that signifies to me that the 2 are at the same place.
As for the directions, I think it depends how easy the place is to find and how far it is from most guests. I'm not bothering to include map info because the location for me is just off a major road and I'm including a personalized google map on our wedding website showing the venue and hotel.
Nope, no need as long as you've got the address people will find their way. I did directions basically because my pocket fold looked a little empty with just an rsvp card.
@bearlove: most of our guests are local and it is pretty easy to find right off the freeway. it just seems like too much work and paper and time to make extra directions thingies. id rather spend my time making the invite really good and doing other things for the wedding. im just not too savvy on wedding "etiquette" i didnt know if people would think its rude or something to not include directions or reception info. when i really dont see the need.
@megcomb: Nah, definitely not rude. If the ceremony/reception are at one location there is zero reason to include reception info other than "its starting right after the ceremony". Maps in your case are not needed (well, I don't think they're ever needed, but sometimes they make more sense...in your case though people will be fine without). With all the crap to take care of with weddings, these are some of the small things to not stress over.

ok so im a diy kinda girl. making my own invites, programs, favors, doing my own centerpieces, decor, etc, etc.. Well im in the process of figuring out the invites and was wondering is it really necessary to include directions and reception details when mapquest exists and my reception is right after my wedding at the same location? should i just add a line to the invite about the reception? alsomy wedding isnt too large, 75-80 guests, and not too formal.
