A lot of people omit the "and" in the year, if you hadn't thought of doing it the other way.  A lot keep it, too.

Please tell me the last names are fake.

And, do the parents want nicknames on there?  It seems like Dave and Suzy are nicknames.

beckylou32

Nope, real names lol. Thanks for the info ladies!

it is more correct to leave the "and" out of the year. and I would change that to Mr. and Mrs. Last Name when referring to the parents.

and ditto with hoping the last names are fake. it's not safe to put first and last names on public message boards. I'm sure your parents and FILs would appreciate it if you would change the last name.

You and your FI should be on separate lines, as you are not yet married.  Also, your names should be joined by TO rather than AND - as you are not yet married.  If your FIs parents are not married, their names need to be on separate lines.  In any event, his mother's name comes before his father's, if they are not married OR if you are not using Mr. and Mrs.

Finally, it would be more proper to use Mr. and Mrs. Doug Rogers, etc.

EDIT:  I changed all the names in here since you said your original post was real names.

It is technically more proper to use the Mr. and Mrs. Parents Names, but if your parents are like mine, they wanted to use Mom and Dad Last Name instead.  I'd go with what they are most comfortable with.

It's very poor etiquette to share your family members' personal information on the internet.

Oh man, now I feel bad that we have an "and" in our invitation rather than "to". It just sounded like it was all about MEMEME with the "to." Ah well, too late now.

beckylou32

Just the first names are real. Thanks!

Shouldn't it be Douglas and Susan (unless Suzy is her legal name) ? If it is a formal invitation, the names should be formal.  And that is if you aren't using
Mr. & Mrs. Douglas Lastnamehere

Agree with Skippy - Be sure to use the full formal version of the names

Other than that, looks great!

I would actually leave out "in the afternoon" since it can be assumed the wedding isn't at 1:00 am, but it is totally up to you.
