etiquette is that 'honour' is used when the ceremony is at a place of worship ...

that being said, i prefer 'pleasure of your company' ...

I like 'pleasure of your company' much better.

I remember reading somewhere that a wedding invite should never say 'pleasure of your company or presence' It should say 'honour' not 'pleasure'. Who knows if its true and really its all your preference, just somthing to consider.

It's supposed to be 'pleasure of your company' if the ceremony is not in a church and 'honor of your presence' if the ceremony is in a church. I say BAH! to the rules and put in 'pleasure of your company' despite the church ceremony thing!
