Note:
- Since you are including the bride’s parent’s name on the invitation, you do not need to list the bride’s last name.
- Do write the groom’s entire name (first, middle and last) on the following line.
- “request the honor of your presence” is traditionally only used if the ceremony is taking place in a house of worship.
