1. If you are planning an event which you expect working people to attend, "Thursday at 6:45pm for coffee and dessert" does not show much consideration for their likely schedules.
2. If your event is important enough, some working people may plan to attend it first and eat dinner afterward. If so, they will probably be chagrined if you hand them a structured agenda extending to 9pm. Especially if the advance information they were given made it sound like a brief discussion over cookies.
