Traditionally weddings are usually hosted by the bride's parents because they gave out their daughter to be married. However, times have changed with the growing independence of the bride financially. So, one has to take into considerations the circumstances when sending out the wedding invitations.
If the bride's parents are hosting, then the wedding invitation could be penned this way:
Mr. & Mrs. Kevin Alan Bridgeman request the honor of your presence at the marriage of their daughter, Gabrielle Lynn Bridgeman to Brian Alan Marks Saturday, the twenty eighth of August two thousand and ten, two o'clock in the afternoon, Lutheran Church, Mountain View, California.
If the couple are paying, then the invitation could be worded in the following manner:
Gabrielle Lynn Bridgeman and Brian Alan Marks request the honor of your presence at their ceremony of marriage Saturday the twenty eighth of August,two thousand and ten, two o'clock in the afternoon, Lutheran Church, Mountain View, California.
If both the bride and groom's parents are divorced and have remarried, then the invitation should read this way:
Mr. Kevin Alan Bridgeman and Mrs. Regina Horn together with Mr. David Duke Marks and Mrs. Stacey Liz Smith request the honor of your presence at the marriage of their daughter and son, Gabrielle Lynn Bridgman and Brian Alan Marks, Saturday the twenty eighth of August, two thousand and ten, two o'clock in the afternoon, Lutheran Church, Mountain View, California.
