invitation wording

I'm getting ready to start thinking about my invite & RSVP wording.

Any ideas? I have a few at home to look at but I'm at work and have some down time!

Together with their parents

Katie & Devin request the honour blah blah blah

invitation wording

I feel like fws parents and my mom would be offended if we dont name them because they contributed.

my dads not contributing and my mom will probably be mad if he's listed. (Same with walking down the aisle)--> nothing i can do here i guess

if you have time look at the layout of my invite (albums) -- makes it tough too.

what about:

Together with their parents,
Mr. & Mrs Robert xxx &
Mr. George xxx & Ms. Patricia xxx

Ms. Meghan xxx & Ms. Lauren xxx

Invite you to share the joy of their marriage
OR request the honor of your presence as they are united in marriage
OR request the honor of your presence as they exchange vows and begin their life together
OR Invite you to share in a celebration of love, the beginning of their life together (Grammar??)

I like this - the way you named your parents is perfect. as far as this part...

i like this if you're having a more formal wedding
'request the honor of your presence as they are united in marriage'

for a more informal affair id choose one of the last two but i find them a little wordy... what about this?
invite you to share our joy
and support our love
as we are united in
the commitment of marriage
