please help me! i have some wording questions!

I have a few silly questions concerning the invite-

each line on the invitation- is the 1st letter of the 1st word on each line supposed to be capitalized?

and is this wording correct,

Saturday, the fifteenth of November
Two thousand and three
At six o'clock in the evening

--- do i need a comma after 'November'
--

for my parent's names - is this right--

Doctor and Mrs. John and Stacy Smith

--

Does 'granddaughter' have a space inbetween the 'grand' and 'daughter'

I'm trying to find these answers online but can't find the right way. The wedding is formal and I would like that to be reflected in the wording of the invitation. Thanks in advance!!

Re: please help me! i have some wording questions!

what kind of font are you using??

if you use something like copperplate, all the letters are in caps, so you don't have to stress about whether or not the initial caps are proper...I don't believe that they are all supposed to be capitalized.. (just the S for Saturday)I would also put the fifteenth day of November

I would also use at half past six in the evening..

granddaughter is one word.

and correct for your parents.

thanks marcella!!

i forgot the 'day' after the 'fifteenth'! thanks!!

my wedding starts at 6 pm now - we are doing this Indian tradition outside the hall and CHCC is now allowing it so that's why i have 'at six o'clock in the evening'

my font has the lowercases too.

So there is no need for the following?

Mr. and Mrs. John Smith
Request the honour of your presence
At the wedding of their daughter
-----

I can just say

Mr. and Mrs. John Smith
request the honour of your presence
at the wedding of their daughter

Thanks.
