Try www.theknot.com, I found some wording there.
You'll need to be patient - it is a slide show and does take a little time to load, depending upon your connection.....and there is a pause between phasing to the next photograph. Hope this helps in your decision making! : )
I'm already dizzy ; )
We are in a similar situation as well and have decided on the following..
Bride's name daughter of Mr. and Mrs. XXXX and Groom's name son of Mr. and Mrs. XX invite......
I think the way Valerie said sends the message best that you and your fiancee are hosting the wedding, but still includes the parents out of respect. To have their names on the invite implies nothing else that you are their children.
Outside: Mr. and Mrs. John Doe 1 Elm Street Anywhere, New York 00000
Inside: John and Jane Doe or just John and Jane
I have lost sleep over this detail!!! I actual posted something about this before. I think our final decision is something very similar to Valerie's suggestion except it is going to start:
The honor of your presence is requested at the wedding of me, daughter of Mr and Mrs XXX to him, son of Mrs. XXX.
This skirts around the issue of who is doing the inviting. But we are going to have my parents as the return address so it's implied that way. I just have been procrastinating telling my parents that this is the way we are going to do it.
