need help PRONTO! Re: Wedding Invitation wording . . .

We want to put both sets of parents on our invites (which I am working on right now) however, Brian's father is remarried (mom is deceased.) I am trying to figure out the correct way of wording the invite. as of right now these are the two options I have . . .

1)

Mr. and Mrs. Louis XXXX
request the honor of your presence
at the marriage of their daughter
Brianne Kimberley XXXX
to
Brian Keith XXXXX
son of
Mr. and Mrs. Ronald XXXX
on Sunday, the tenth day of July
Two thousand and five
at three o’clock in the afternoon
Infant Jesus Parish
Main Street
Port Jefferson, New York


2)

Mr. and Mrs. Louis XXXX
request the honor of your presence
at the marriage of their daughter
Brianne Kimberley XXXXX
to
Brian Keith XXXXX
son of
Mr. Ronald XXXXXX
And his wife Pamela
on Sunday, the tenth day of July
Two thousand and five
at three o’clock in the afternoon
Infant Jesus Parish
Main Street
Port Jefferson, New York



Which wording do you think is better, since this is Brian's step-mother? Do you have any other suggestions?

TIA!!!

Re: need help PRONTO! Re: Wedding Invitation wording . . .

We have the same situation. FI cannot stand his father's wife so we had to work around it. Plus my parents are divorced and my mom no longer has my last name. It's all so complicated

We are going with

Mr. XXXX and Miss ZZZZ
request the honor of your presence
at the marriage of their daughter
kdrainey
to
FI
son of
Mr. AAAA and the late Mrs. AAAA
date
Two thousand and five
time
location

I think the first one sounds most appropriate! Hope this response isn't too late.
