You're welcome!!! Believe me - I know how this kind of thing can keep you up at night. I had three people proof my invites and I had such an argument over my reception card. FH & I are paying for the wedding so I didn't want the invite itself to have parents names (and both fathers are deceased, so anything I came up with sounded funny when you read it out loud). So I put, please join the new Mr. and Mrs. P and their family for the reception blah blah, and the whole world was like - shouldn't it read and their 'families' not 'family' - I kept having to point out that a wedding is supposed to be the joining of two families into ONE family. DUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You should definitely try and get some sleep. Let's face it - no matter what, you can't get anything done about it until the morning. Post and let us know what the outcome is after you talk to the invite lady.

you can do

Mr & Mrs John Doe
Mr & Mrs So and so
request the honor of your presence
to the marriage of Jane Doe's daughter
you name with last
to
FH

blah blah

I can across that when i was looking for different wording for my situation
