    What do you think for a modern/not too traditional wedding (I just copy/paste from word and spacing is weird...so disregard spacing!):

    Together with their parents

    Amy Michelle 

    &
    Bryan Dancey

    invite you to share and celebrate the joy of their marriage
    Saturday the twenty-sixth of June two thousand ten
    at six thirty in the evening

    Do you intend to have the bold words bold?  Or just your names in bigger type?

    I would personally take out the word "style" and leave it as "Cocktail reception to follow."

    I'm a little confused. The words, "share and celebrate the joy of their marriage" sounds like you've already gotten married. If you're inviting them to your wedding, you might try something a little less vague that communicates that there will be a ceremony AND reception to follow. (:

    Hmmmm....I think I copied this from Invitation Consultants, but I had never looked at it that way.

    What about share and celebrate as we exchange vows

    Saturday, June....
