Invitation Wording

mandac033

I'm starting to look at invitation wording and I'm not sure what proper etiquette is. Are you suppose to word it with both parents inviting, bride's parents inviting, or the bride/groom inviting? I'm so confused!!! Thanks girls!!

The host/hostess issues the invitation in their names

It really depends on your wedding.  Who is hosting?  AKA, if there's a problem that day, who's dealing with it?  Your dad?  You?  Your uncle?  Hosting=/=paying.

If your parents ARE paying for it, they will likely want to be named on the invite.  Our parents are not, but I still wanted to include them, so that's an option too.

We did "Together with their parents."  It's just easier that way, especially since both of us have divorced parents, all but one of whom have remarried.

Here's a link to different variations of wording so you can pick the one that best fits your situation.
