    The better half has a book that lists samples of invites. One of them is for weddings of kids of divorced couples and re-married couples.

    There are also examples of invites for kids whose parents are dead.

    It's my life goal to have my wedding announcement go something like this ...

    "Mom, it's me. She and I are in Vegas and we just got married at the same drive-in wedding chapel Michael Jordan used."

    I'd use neither version ...
    I'd start the second line with "request" and the third line with "at."

    Amen. And why is this on JTO? Haven't we established a wedding subboard on AG yet?

    I put it here 'cause it was kind of a "design" question (i.e. where to break things up).

    We can nuke this thread now. The invites are done, and will be in the mail by Friday.

    So, don't leave us in suspense.

    How did you break it up?

    And I better get an invite. ;)

    Oh, I went with the first option, which I thought was correct in the first place.

    I would have used (and tried to, actually) occasionally's suggestion, but the width wasn't right.

    I'm happy with them. It's like we said, who the hell keeps the invites anyway? Half goes in the recycle bin, half is sent back to us!

    And on a personal note: Weddings are a racket. Go away to get married!

    I have some wedding planning advice: Don't do it.

    I remember one father of the bride saying at the reception that if he'd realized just how much it was going to cost, he would have offered his daughter half the amount in cash to elope.

    We found out too late that the father of my bride would have rather given us down payment for a house. Fuck!
