We're just putting our own names as we are paying for it. However, I should mention that we are both 2nd time around.

I'm having 'together with their parents'. I find the bride's parents one a bit old fashioned, especially nowadays when most couple organise/pay for their own wedding.

Im doing B, from my parents as the hosts.
I'm very lucky in that they are paying for the wedding so believe they should be the 'hosts'

Hi B) from my parents as they are paying the bulk :)

We will probably be doing A simply because my parents aren't together so it makes it a lot more difficult and they're not paying for the wedding. However, if they were paying I would probably have my mum and dad's names. xx

If your parents are paying I would put B. If you’re paying I would put A :)

Mine is very simple. Avoiding traditional wording. Just having our first names and then the words (wedding or evening) invitation. That way I assume they will know they they are invited and to which part. Then inside just having all the info

Depends who’s paying, if it’s just you and your partner then it’s just your names on

We are going to tell the world that we love, honour, and cherish each other.

Putting our names as invite is from us and not the parents.

I made all my invites myself and I had no idea how to word it 🙈
I just popped onto google, looked at templates and choose the one I liked the sound of most 🙂
Also my partner and I don’t want a traditional wedding so our invites are from us, not the formal from the parents nonsenses 🙂

We're having 'together with their parents' as they are contributing financially

UKbride Administrator
UKbride Administrator 29 Nov 2017

Neither as we are paying for our wedding x

We are paying for our wedding ourselves and won't be having any financial input from either side of the family but I like the idea of having parents names... Maybe we might use my parents on invites to my family and his for his family? - it can be a tricky decision.
Hope you figure it out

A because both of our parents have helped towards the wedding and the rest we've paid for ourselves. As far as I'm concerned we are the hosts, not either of our parents.

Together with their families. They've both been generous with time and money, not going to turn it into a competition for who helps more.

We're just going with - bride and groom's names ... are inviting you to celebrate their wedding cause we're paying for it ourselves. Or something along those lines, haven't decided full wording yet

We have together with our families as my parents are divorced and they have all helped contribute to our wedding
