Invitation Wording

cassie821

I have posted this before back in November but can't get back to read the responses.   Ok, I am in a pickle on how to word the invitation.  My mom is helping me and my fiance pay for the wedding, but his family has no part.  My mom is remarried and my dad is deceased.  How should I word the invitations?  I'm leaning toward the ones where we put our names first and say along with the families request your presence...so on and so on.  I'm afraid that my mom will get offended though.  I do believe she would like to have her name on there somehow. 

Also, do I need to put the addresses of the ceremony location and the reception location on the invitation? 
Thanks so much in advance for your responses

If the reception is at a different location, I would include a reception insert with the other address.  But, the location of the ceremony should always be on the invitation. 

Step-parents should not be mentioned on invites unless they have effectively replaced a parent in the effort of raising you.

I am in the same situation . . I came up with four or five different wordings, some "together with their families" some Ms. MOB, and emailed them to her to help me decide.  She actually chose one where my fiance and I were "inviting."  Ultimately, it will be far simpler to discuss it with her before hand.
