I'd go with the top one but change to Mum and Dad... Even if it's still cool to have Mummy and Daddy, it's being diplomatic incase!

Thanks. Im sure by that time he will have dropped mummy/daddy as he sometimes calls me mum now.

On the info page I've done I've involved details for the nearest convenience shops, pharmacy and walk in centre. As some guests may be staying in the address for the weekend. X

If it were me, I wouldn't put the mummy and daddy thing at all, I find it cheesy, but that's just me. 'Mummy and daddy wanted me to let you know' just made me cringe, it's not my day or my invitations though, so if that's what you want, then go for it. But personally. No...it's not for me. At all.
If I was gunna do this though, I'd just restrict it to having your son as the one hosting on the actual invitation part, but no where else as I think it's a bit overkill.
Sorry I'm a bit of a stick in the mud lol ):

I appreciate your opinions Im not sure if we are going to go down that route anyway as I said in my first sentence. However it is HIS day just as much as it is mine and H2B's I know not everyone will agree with that but its how we both feel. Connor is such a major part in our life that we feel he should be involved and made to feel its about him too.
I also did think about just having him on the invites and just having the info pages with the info rather than the first sentence.
Ana40 thank you for the added info :)

We have 4 children between us and the invite wording is....a, b, c and d invite ....... To celebrate the wedding of their parents etc xx
CommentAuthorFutureMrsPendlebury
I quite like the 'mummy & daddy'! I suppose it is because I do sometimes call my mum that if I'm having an off day lol. Do what you and your H2B wants! Like you said your son is a big part of your life and of your wedding so why not have a unique way incorporating him into your wedding invites! :) x
