yea I know what you mean...
I think it sounds a little funny with the Mr. but it might be the proper way to word it when I think about it...

I think 'the marriage and celebration of our daughter' sounds like it's a celebration of you...and marriage. Does that make sense? Could you do 'the marriage celebration of our daughter' or something? Or 'to celebrate the marriage of our daughter'? What do I know, though....my mom won't agree to any wording we like!

I would put Mr. with his fathers name. I think it will flow better.

We just did our wording and did the same as your second one. The woman who did the invitations told us to put Mr. in front of his dad's name, but I don't know if there is a right or wrong answer. I think Mr makes it more formal and consistent.
