deceased father

i have a slight dilemma that i want to handle with care....

my fiance's father passed away about 3 years ago.  his mother has been very generous in helping out with the wedding expenses so i wanted both sets of parents on my invites.  does anyone have any good suggestions to go about this?

thanks for your help

Re: deceased father

  • The best thing is to do this:

    Mr. and Mrs. Bride Dad Last
    Mrs. Groom Mom last

    request the pleasure of your company
    at the marriage of their children

    Bride Middle Last
    to
    Groom Middle Last

    on Saturday, the eighth of May
    two thousand ten
    at half after five o'clock in the evening.

    Venue Name
    Address
    City, State

    Then, include his father in the programs:

    Parents of the Groom:
    Mrs. Groom Mom Last and the late Mr. Groom Dad Last

    Dresses may be easier to take in than let out, but guest lists are not. -- kate51485
  • I am in a similar situation, having lost my mom a few years ago. Our invites are going to read as follows:

    Mr. [my dad first & last], the late [my mom first & last],
    and Mr. & Mrs. [his dad first] and [his mom first] [their last]
    invite you to share in their joy
    at the marriage of their children...etc etc

    So maybe you could do something like that? Or maybe when you list your FI, above or below it could say "son of the late Mr. XXX and Mrs. XXX"

    HTH!
  • thanks all, much appreciated
