Wedding Invite Question

Original post by momof2

I posted this on the Mom's board, but it's a little slow there. Here's my question. My friend's son is getting married and the brides family is hosting the wedding (although my friend has offered to help with the costs, I think all they asked them to do was pay for the limo's). Anyway, the wedding invites were printed and my friends' name is left off. Both my girls got married last year and my husband and I hosted both weddings. We would never have thought to not mention the grooms parents name on the invites. We did the typical son of Mr. and Mrs. ----. Why would they leave the groom's parents off the invites. She feels horrible and now just feels like another quest at someones wedding. Just thought I'd ask your thoughts on this.

We didn't put parents name on our invitations. Neither mine or my inlaws. it worked out better that way for us.

I just got a wedding invitation from a friend of mine - she only put her parent's names on the inviation, not the groom's parents. I don't think their is anything wrong with this, especially since the bride's parents paid for everything!

yeah - i don't think there really is a right or wrong to this - to each his own. She just felt hurt and left out. Like I said before, almost like just another guest going to the wedding.
