Invitation question

My fiancee's father is deceased. We'd like to add both parents inviting people on the invitation but still want to include his father.... suggestions?

Thank you!

Here are a few suggestions:

The honor or your presence is requested
to witness the joining in marriage of
Mary Sue Smith,
Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. David Smith
and
Jimmy John Jones
Son of Ms. Jane Smith and the late Mr. John Smith

or

Mr. and Mrs. David Smith
requests the honour of your presence
at the marriage of her daughter
Eliza Rose
to
Matthew James Jones
son of Ms. Jane Jones and the late Mr. John Jones
on Saturday, the first day of June
Two thousand and two
at five o'clock in the evening
St. Joseph's Church
Scottsdale, Arizona

or

Eliza Rose Smith
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. David Smith
and
Thomas Scott Carson
son of Mrs. Scott Carson and the late Mr. Carson
request the honour of your presence

I hope this helps. I think this is incredibly honorable to add him on the invitation.

How do we like this. I've had it saved for a week but wasn't sure of it....

Regina Maria
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. ----------
&
Christopher Michael
son of Mrs. --------- and the late Mr. --------
are entering into their new life together

The honour of your presence is requested
to share in the joy when their children unite in marriage
on Friday, the twenty-seventh of November
Two Thousand and Nine

(then the details)

Hi there, another option would be if both parents are hosting:

Mr. and Mrs. John Doe
and
Mrs. Mary Jane Smith
and the late Mr. John Smith
request the honour of your presence
etc.

and if your parents are hosting we usually use the example above:

Mr. and Mrs. David Smith
requests the honour of your presence
at the marriage of her daughter
Eliza Rose
to
Matthew James Jones
son of Ms. Jane Jones and the late Mr. John Jones
on Saturday, the first day of June
Two thousand and two
at five o'clock in the evening
St. Joseph's Church
Scottsdale, Arizona

Hope this helps!
