I don't have a preference, but I don't want it to look dumb!

option 1:



option 2:



option 3:

Re: Ok, there's definitely a poll now. INVITE WORDING HELP, please!

I like #2 but I think it should have the word 'To' instead of 'And'.

Re: Ok, there's definitely a poll now. INVITE WORDING HELP, please!

I like #2 & #3.

Re: Ok, there's definitely a poll now. INVITE WORDING HELP, please!

thank you, but I copied that part from an etiquette book. I'm just concerned about the names.


example:
uniting apples and oranges - correct
as opposed to
uniting apples to oranges - awkward

Since your FH's parents are mentioned on the invite, there is no need to use his last name.

ETA:

I should have voted for # 2 .... I didn't see realize that it didn't have his last name. Sorry for messing up your poll

I just realized that! I'm sorry!!!!

lol... sorry! i am blind!!

I thik #3 is best, I've mostly seen them using the groom's last name.

And, on #2, Is he properly Richard Arthur 'Jr' if he doesn't have the last name? Wouldn't he be just Richard Arthur? I'm not sure about the etiquette of 'Jr', but it looks odd to me, so I think you could forestall the oddness by having his last name.

I'm happy we're hosting our own wedding, so we could just put our own full names on the invite!

edited to remove the 'married to' comment, as you're right, I didn't see that it said 'unite,' not 'marry.'

thank you - its the Jr that is effing everything up!

I blame FMIL!

Re: Ok, there's definitely a poll now. INVITE WORDING HELP, please!

I still stand by #2

Re: Ok, there's definitely a poll now. INVITE WORDING HELP, please!

I think option #2 without FH's last name. If you are going to put FH's last name, I think you should also put your last name so it looks more uniform.

I love consistency.


I don't love invites.

Re: Ok, there's definitely a poll now. INVITE WORDING HELP, please!

My family vote swayed to #3

Re: Ok, there's definitely a poll now. INVITE WORDING HELP, please!

You know, I read them over a couple times (w/o reading the responses), and couldn't even tell the difference among the three

Re: Ok, there's definitely a poll now. INVITE WORDING HELP, please!

I like 2 . . . I do not think you need your lat names if you list your parents.
