Both of my parents have been remarried. I wasn't sure exactly how I should word the wedding invitations. I don't mind ONLY putting my "real" parents names, and leaving off the step-parents. At the same time, I don't mind their names being on the invitations either. Which is the best way to go about wording the invitations when both parents are remarried??

Who usually hosts the wedding? The bride's mom? If so, that would be my mom. If not, I'm not sure who would/will yet. Thanks for such a quick reply!!

Hosting the wedding refers to who is paying. Typically that would be the bride's parents but nowadays the grooms parents and the bride and groom sometimes chip in. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".

Dear So In Love,
Traditionally, only your birth parents would be listed, mother first, no "and" to join the name.
Mrs. Adam Jeffrey Smith Mr. Thomas John Jones request the honor of your presence at the marriage of their daughter ....
If you want to include the step-parents:
Mr. and Mrs. Adam Jeffery Smith Mr. and Mrs. Thomas John Jones request the honor...
Confused with Wording!!
