Bicycle question!

Howdy, howdy. I'm not sure how bike savy anyone here is, but i've no bike-specific forums to ask this question on, and i've searched around the internets as much as i could.
I've been collecting parts for a single speed bike build, and I'm a bit stuck on wheels at this point.
Will 700x20mm clincher wheels fit 23c tires (I realize 20mm is intended for a 20 tire, but could I fit a 23c pair of tires in without any issues)?

Sheldon Brown, as always, has a lot on it: http://www.sheldonbrown.com/tire_sizing.html
There's a handy table down low that has a general list of what sizes are acceptable and what aren't.
Just a question: Have you bought the rims yet? Are you trying to buy smaller rims to use with your existing tires, or what? What brand rims/hubs you thinking about? I think 700x23 are more common, and would probably give you fewer headaches, unless you're going for ultra-lightweight.
