  We did "invite you to join us as we exchange our wedding vows"

  the ceremony is just family.  so yes, not everyone is invited to the ceremony.  I do not like the "of their children" because it doesn't settle right with me.  In my mind this phrase would work for younger people.  I'm 25 and he's 40.

  [QUOTE]If you are having a private ceremony with just family followed by a larger reception, then you invite people to the reception.  You include small cards to the few people who will be invited to the ceremony.  I hope we are talking about a very select few immediate family members only. <strong>Who is hosting your wedding?  You don't put the groom's family on the invitation unless they are hosting.</strong>

  <div>I thought paying did not necessarily equal hosting.  My FI and I are paying 100%, but my parents are hosting.  And if I had enough space, I would put FI's parents on the invites too, even though they aren't pitching in a dime</div>
