How to word invitations when bride is divorced?

You can seriously still use your maiden name. An invite isn't a legal document...

Are you taking his last name?

We said "FH and munkos invite you to join them as they become Mr and Mrs. "FH's last name." "

That could be a way to include his last name an leave out any other names

I am in a similar boat. I am just using my maiden name. People will know what is what because of his name. I am sure they will know it ius me =) otherwise he found another Jessica really fast! Haha

Amy Jane and Michael John invite you to join them as they become Mr and Mrs Jones...

Yes! Munkos, I love that idea! His name is the only one that matters now. Yes, I am absolutely taking it, that's why I never bothered changing my name back. I wanted to take the name of the man who will be the father of my only children. Thanks everyone!

For a second wedding, you may also wish to reflect the nature of the event:

Please join us

as we celebrate new beginnings, new dreams and new love

at the marriage of

Georgina Claire

&

Mr. Stephen Aaron Jones

Or

With joy in our hearts, we,

Georgina

and

Stephen

request the honour of your presence

as we exchange marriage vows

and celebrate our new life together

or, have the invitation come from the children;

Mr. Malachi Smith

requests the honor of your presence

at the marriage of his mother

Georgina

To

Stephen Aaron Jones

I was curious about this too. i'm glad it was asked so i could get my answer

What if a bride uses her maiden name with a hyphen to her EXH's name?? Smith-Jones

Does anyone feel this would be appropriate? I want to honor my maiden name of which some know me by. However, I was married for quite a while and have an adult child so many know me by my married name.

I am divorced and never changed my last name. We are also paying for the wedding ourselves. I plan on using my maiden name on our invitations. My family and friends know me by both last names it’s only co workers really that know me by my ex husbands name. I don’t think there’s a wrong answer. It’s your wedding, and your invitation, refer to yourself however you like.

Use your maiden name on the invitation. But use your legal name on the return address on the outside envelope.

You are kindly invited
to the wedding of

This avoids your last name and indicates your name will be changing. *I'm divorced, so I understand.

I like this because both parts of your name that will be changing are omitted and yet it makes clear who you're becoming.

Is it bad that none of this ever even occurred to me question?

Our invites had both of our first/last names, but then I never carried my ex-husband's last name to begin with so that helped. I would have just put my maiden name on the invites if I did have my ex-husband's name though.
