You could do it this way


Ms. So and So cordially invites you to the marriage of her daughter

first middle name

to

FH first middle name

son of Mr. & Mrs. blah blah


this is showing respect to FH's parents while showing that your mother is the one paying for the wedding



I agree, I am in the same situation and that is how we are wording our invites..



Perfect!!



This wording is perfect. It does not imply that his parents are inviting or hosting the event .. it merely acknowledges that they are his parents.

I want to word the invitations the traditional way. Both sets of parents are giving us money for the wedding but we are paying for most of it and FH feels it should be worded differently. He likes the one where it say With there parents then our names request the honor of your prescense.

I like the traditional way. When the time comes will discuss it a little deeper.

hmm.. i wanted to word my invitations with only my parents on there for many reasons - not getting into details now but...

i think the way you had it like your parents first then grooms name, son of mr. and mrs xyz.

If both parents are contributing to the weeding then both should be mentioned. In my case FMIL is not giving us a cent so FH does not want her on the invite.

we are paying for the wedding ourselves but out of respect for our parents we are putting:

Mr and Mrs Brides Parents

request the honour of our presence at. . . .

bride

to

groom

son of Mr and Mrs Groom's parents

*even though we are paying for our own wedding I am very traditional so i like this way the best

but as with anything with wedding planning you can do whatever you want!



I agree. We are paying for our wedding also and I think this is best to show respect to both sides.

Fh's mom isn't contributing-his father passed away eight years ago and she can't afford it. It doesn't matter matter though-we would NEVER not put her name on it.
