     How to include groom's stepmother on wedding invite?  

My fiance's mother has passed and his father is remarried. He feels awkward calling his father's wife his stepmother (or suggesting “son of”) on the invitation. He was an adult when his mother passed and father remarried. While they do not have a bad relationship he is not particularly close to her. He does have a close relationship with his father and he feels strongly about having his name on the invitation. Any suggestions as to how to include his "stepmother" on the wedding invitation"?

Dear Poptart,

You really only have to mention his father, as he is his father. If you have programs, you could mention her as the father of the groom's wife.

Best wishes,
