Smile Re: divorced parents...

I am facing the same problem, because my soon to be hubby has divorced parents/remarried parents, and I have been trying to rack my brain trying to figure out how I could still honor his biological Father, even if he isn't at the wedding, and still honor his step dad.??? I am so glad that I am not the only one having this dilemma lol

Here is another idea for those with more than the 1 set of parents.

Use something like this.
Please join our children Mary Smith and John Doe on the date as they start their new life together blah...blah...blah
Then have all parents at the bottom in This order:
Mother of Bride and husband
Father of Bride and wife
Mther of Groom and husband
Father of Groom and wife

This way everyone is included.

maybe you could do:
Bride's dad and mom
along with
Groom's dad's full name (John Smith) and mom (Sandy Smith)
cordially invite you...

Or if they're remarried, do it more like the top example.

Hope that helps!
Yes, this idea will be the good one.

I disagree with only putting the parents on the invitations if they are paying for the wedding. If you want the parents on there, by all means put them on the invitations. I have yet to get an invitation and looked to see who was footing the bill by who's names are on them.
