Hello Bees,

Just doing my final read through of the invitation before they go to the printer. Please tell me if this sounds right. It’s the “each other’s hand in marriage” part that doesn’t seem right to me. Any grammar experts out there?? 🙂  Thanks!

The dates are usually reversed, meaning it would say…on the twenty fifth of May

No dash between 25th and 2013.  Maybe a comma.
