invites wording

how do you word invitations if grooms parents contributed alot of money (almost half but not quite) but brides parents paying the rest?

Re: invites wording

I would list the names of both your parents and FH parents would like to like to invite you to share in the joy blah blah etc. IMHO both parents name should be on it because both of you parents are contributing.

You could do :

Mr and Mrs John Smith(brides family FIRST)
and
Mr and Mrs. Joe Jones
request the honour of your presence
at the marriage of their children
Mary Elizabeth
and
Paul Horace
on blah blah blah

this is how my parents invite looked (granted it was 1956 but both families split the cost) and they left the year off!:
