What do you think of wedding invitations that leave out the name of the grooms parents? Both my girls got married last year and my husband and I hosted both weddings. However, we would never think of leaving the grooms parents name off the invitation. Although we did not put their names along side of ours, we mentioned them as son of Mr. And Mrs. ---. A good friend of mine feels horrible that their names were left off the invitation for their sons' wedding. She came to me and asked how I handled our invites and I felt terrible for her. She didn't mention it to her son because she didn't want to upset anything. I was just wondering how you ladies feel about this subject.

Re: Wedding Invite Question
Since I am divorced from my sons father they both worded their invitations as so and so along with their parent cordially invite you. Because of the situation I was fine with that, but if it were different and was totally left off the invite I would be very hurt. I think she should mention it to her son when they are alone together and tell him (calmly) how she feels. Wish her luck for me.

Re: Wedding Invite Question
Thanks Liz - but I know she won't say anything to him. The invites are already printed. I just hope she can get over it before the wedding. She has waited a long time for this day to come and I want her to enjoy the day.

Re: Wedding Invite Question
Ah, I hope so too! I am lucky because I have two wonderful DIL's who are like my own daughters and neither one left me out of anything.
