Weddingbee boards

There are many variations depending on if the bride's parents are paying for the wedding and you want to indicate they are the hosts; or, both sets of parents are hosting, or, the bride and groom are paying and want to indicate who the parents are.

Is the groom's mother remarried?

I wouldn't include the girlfriend.

I would word it like this if the bride's parents are hosting the wedding and the groom's mother is remarried:

Mr. and Mrs. Robert Allen Brooks
request the honour of your presence
at the marriage of their daughter
Melissa Ann
to
William James Russo
son of
Mrs. Joanne Ruth Wilson (Joanne Ruth Russo if not remarried)
and
Mr. Anthony Thomas Russo

etc etc etc

My dad is remarried and this is how I did mine.

Mr. John Smith & Ms. Barbara Smith request the honour of your presence....
