wording on invite---

My parents are paying for most of it. I am helping out where I can as is my fiance. His parents are paying for the rehearsal dinner and for some flowers and photography.

Is there a certain way to word it? Or is this okay?

Mr. and Mrs. --- -----
request the honour of your presence
at the wedding of their daughter
-----
to
-----
son of Mr. and Mrs. -------

etc....

I think that sounds great. Actually it is the exact wording I will be using!

Thanks guys. One more question. The part where it says, 'son of Mr. and Mrs.'

should I put their first and last names like 'son of Joseph and Linda Smith' or should it match my parents names 'mr. and mrs. steven jones'

thanks for your help once again!

I did the exact same wording...

Mr and Mrs John Jones
request the honour of your presence
at the marriage of their daughter
hmichick
to
luckiest man in the world
son of Mr and Mrs John Smith

My parents are paying for half, and we are paying for the other half- FILs are not really contributing, but FH wanted their names on the invite. So this was the compromise.

I think that the wording you have is the most appropriate!

thats exactly how we did it...

just make sure you put his parents as the hosts on the rehearsal dinner invite

About the rehearsal dinner invites - since they are hosting it- they will send out the invites, not me, right?

that could be the case...but do they know this...I know that DH's aunt and uncle (who hosted it for us) did not know this...so I did the invites myself

I also made my RD invites even though FILs were hosting.
