Re: HELP!!
Jenn, I'm not sure I understand your question, but one thing that jumps out at me...The brides parents always come first, and since your parents are divorced, than your Mom should be listed first, and if she still has your Dad's last name, than just use it.
Mrs. Mom's first name with Dad's last name.
Your Dad and his wife are listed second as:
Mr. and Mrs. Dad's first name and last name.
Then John's Mom and stepdad as:
Mr. and Mrs. StepDad's first name and last name.
Hope this helps!

Re: HELP!!
I was told that when your parents are divorced you put your mom first, then your dad on the next line. Same for groom's parents. If they are married, you list them as mr. & mrs. For example, mine say:Ms. Bride's mom
and
Captain Bride's dad
United States Air Force, retired
request the honour of your presence
at the marriage of their daughter

Mr. and Mrs. groom's parents
