Invites - what name to use

Daisy82, 16 May, 2010 at 18:15 Posted on Planning 0 3

I know there's been alot of these this weekend but I've finally finished making my invites and have begun adding the names. What did everyone put for the invite to grandparents?

Did you put their name i.e Isabel or their title Granny?

TIA x

    We used their names. It did feel odd sending one to my mum by name (and she whinged a bit) but I explained because the invite was from both of us, it wouldn't have been right to put mum. I guess Granny and and Aunt would be the same logic, but I guess you could go both ways with it.

    LOL My mum is still trying to get used to the idea of receiving an invitation to the wedding in the first place! LOL In her book, she is The Mother of The Bride so it goes without saying that she should be at the wedding, she doesn't need an invite! LOL (I explained that since we are hosting our own wedding this is just etiquette). In fact in both Norway and Romania, where I have family, the bridal party do not receive invitations as it is implicitly understood they will attend!

    I'd go with names for a more formal wedding and maybe with "Gran" for a more casual affair!

    Good luck! xxx

    She has alzhiemers disease so I will probably use her real name as she is beginning to forget me ☹️ let alone remember I'm getting married, but she still has her sense of humour!

    My parents knows they're getting an invite but writing their names will be strange x
