invitation inspirtation needed

I'm having the fairly traditional wording. The following is for people invited to the breakfast if not the bottom is changed to reception at 7pm for reception with speeches starting at 7:30

Mr & Mrs Kevin A Smith

requests the pleasure of your company

at the marriage of their daughter

Victoria Sheireen

to

Mr Paul Anthony Higgs

on Saturday 4th August 2012

At 13:30

St Patricks Church

Park Hill Road

Wallington

Followed by cake reception and photos

After which you are invited to join them

for the wedding breakfast at

The Hub

My mum and dad are divorced so not sure if to put together with their parents or whether to just put from myself and OH

My mother insists on sending her own invitations because its tradition and me and OH will send evening invites.

My friend put their names and then along with their parents invite you to ...

this was mainly because her parents are divorced and they are paying for the wedding whereas my parents are paying for most of my wedding

Hi.

I am the friend Vikki is referring to (hi Vikki!!) We spoke to our parents and wanted to include them in the invite somehow but we are hosting the wedding together so we put

"Together with their families.." - seems to have gone down well

Hey hun I knew it was something along those lines but not at home so couldn't remember. hows it going?

Good thanks! 28 days!!

There are loads of websites that can give you examples for inspiration. I think traditionally the invitation is supposed to be written from whoever is paying for the wedding. We're paying for it ourselves, so ours will say something along the lines of:

Miss Bride and Mr Groom

request the pleasure of the company of

Guest names

at our marriage ceremony

on

Date/Time

at

Venue

With an evening reception to follow.

We want to keep them simple and to the point, so figure this will be sufficient!!
