Invitation Wording-- please post yours!

Hi Girls,
For those of you who have ordered your invites already (or who are ordering them very soon), how are you wording them?

This is how we are planning on wording our invites:

Mr. & Mrs. My Parents
and
Mrs. Fiance's Mom
request the honour of your presence
as their children
Me
and
Fiance
son of the late Fiance's Dad
are united in matrimony
on Sunday, the fourth of June
two thousand six
at eleven-thirty in the morning
The Estate at East Wind
5720 Route 25A
Wading River, New York

Formal reception to follow


What do you girls think about this? Do you have any suggestions for improvements?

Thanks!

That sounds great - very tasteful. I have seen some examples for couples that wanted to include a deceased parent, and they are very similar to what yo have.

My FH and I are going with a more modern route - we are paying for almost everything ourselves so ours will be...

Betty Jones
and
Sam Smith
Together with their parents
Invite you to share

On, Saturday the fifteenth of July
Two thousand and Six
At twelve thirty in the afternoon

I think yours is beautiful.

Here's ours. We included both parents even though my mother gave us money to help pay for the wedding and his parents did not contribute any. We would have done it this way even if my mother didn't help us.

Together with our parents

Hi! just curious to why you guys chose to only put your dad's name on it. My dad is helping us pay for the wedding and his parent's aren't but I would feel bad not putting his parents name on it, even though I think its the right thing not to include them, you know what I mean?
XOXOXOXO

Mine is a bit wordy because both of our parents are divorced and both of our dad's are remarried and we wanted to include everyone on the invite, so here it is:

Ms. Mother of the Bride
and Mr. and Mrs. Father of the Bride
request the honor of your presence
at the marriage of their daughter
Bride
to
Groom
son of Ms. Mother of the Groom
and Mr. and Mrs. Father of the Groom

etc.
