My parents and his parents are both contributing but my parents are divorced - How should the invitation read (I would like to show the names) - I am not sure how I feel about 'Together with their parents'. Advice please. Was anyone in this situation?

Re: HELP!!!!!!!
I had a very similar problem. My parents are still married and are paying for some of the wedding; my FI parents have been divorced for many years; my FMIL is contributing to the wedding but my FFIL is not. We didn't want to leave anybody out so this is how we decided to word our invites:
Mr. and Mrs. Brides Parents request the honour of your presence at the marriage of their daughter X to X son of Mrs Grooms Mom and Mr. Grooms Dad Saturday the fifth of July.....
I would have been fine doing 'together with their parents' but my dad is very traditional so I didn't want to insult him.
You could also try:
Mr. Brides Father Mrs. Brides Mother and Mr. and Mrs. Grooms parents request the honour of your prescence at the marriage of their children x and x.... Just some ideas!! Good Luck!

Re: HELP!!!!!!!
If you want all names included littlecat has it right. Also, consider your intros. Will your parents walk in together or with a different partner?

Re: HELP!!!!!!!
I have the same situation so we are putting something like 'The families of...' or 'Claudia and David, together with their families,...'.
