We purchased our invitations today and we need to get them out ASAP!
The mother of the groom is making a generous contribution to our wedding.
(edit: to be clear she is the only one paying for our wedding besides my fiance and myself)
It is traditional for the brides parents to pay for the wedding, so normally on an invite it would say:
mr. and mrs. John Smith
request the pleasure of your company
at the marriage of their daughter...
that obviously won't work in this case. It is also not both sets of parents either. Should we do it as if it is the bride and groom are inviting? -- we are so lost. How should we word the first part?
