    This is a good question Kalin!

    I think I want to be "Mrs Axxxxx" but I don't know what to put for our Parents! John and Sally seems impersonal Mr/Mrs Smith too formal, but Mum/Dad will be confusing as there are 2 of each!!

    Sorry,doesn't help much!

    For ours I will put "Mr [surname]" and "Mrs [surname]" as it'll be a bit of a novelty haha!

    For our parents etc will do first names.

    It is entirely up to you but from my experience, the most popular is to put all first names apart from Bride and Groom

    I'm icing names on cookies so it'll be first names only! I haven't decided between Bride & Groom or Mrs W & Mr W for us yet. Parents will probably be first names.

    I think we'll probably put things like

    Mother of the Bride
    Jeanette

    Father of the Bride
    Richard

    For me & my OH i think we'll just put our names x

    Depends on how formal your wedding is

    I have seen everything from

    Mum, Dad, Grandad

    Through to

    Father of the Bride
    Rt. Hon xxxx

    Mother of the bride
    Lady xxx

    I'm doing B, G, MoB, FoB, MoG, FoG

    We have 5 bridesmaids/groomsmen, so they are all getting names to avoid confusion.

    For everyone else I am doing title, first name, surname.

    I had been thinking about this as well, I think I will go with mother of the bride etc. Can't wait to be sitting down to the table to see the first thing that will read Mrs A Smiley smile
