    i would add

    and afterwards at: afternoon meal place
    then onto: evening venue place

    My rsvp bit just says RSVP to Mr and Mrs A Reid, and their address as thats where my replies are going too and then i also put a Rsvp by date on the right hand bottom of invite and stated it as 3 weeks before wedding date so 3rd July for me.

    You dont need to inform your guests about the local park for photos if you arent having them all getting pics with you, as the bridal party would already know. But if its for everyone then I would add that onto the info list you add in with your invites. As for time of the meal if they are going there to have a wee drink whilst you are having your pics taken then I wouldnt bother stating a time as they would know the meal would start after you turn up at the venue. x
