Question Wording for Invitation when parents are divorced

I am trying to get my invitations together. At first I wasn't going to mention parents but my fiance' parents wants to be mentioned on the invitations so I must mention mine. My parents are divorced, but my mother kept her married name.. The space on invitation is limited and i wanted to include a saying at the top here is what i was thinking:
Their lives have been blessed
by their love for each other
and by their faith in the Lord
(Brides name)
and
(Groom Name)
together with their parents
Mr. Dad & Ms. Mom samelastname
and
Mr. & Mrs. Grooms Parents
invite you to witness the vows
that will join them together as one
on date
two thousand and seven
at place

The problem: The parents are taking up more space then bride/groom name, parents seem to be in the center of the invitation and eye goes their, and is this correct for Mr. Dad & Ms. Mom samelastname - can i do this.. I know it would be perfect to separate it but can not b/c of space..

Advice is appreciated.. Not sure what to do but want to keep the saying at the top (i love that)
