My parents are payin for everything except ther rehersal dinner and the honeymoon. I'm not close with his family and have had issues with them in the past. He has a very small extended family and his parents are only inviting one friend. Do they need to be included on the invitation?

    My parents are paying so their names are on it. His are not paying so they are not listed. I based this decision off of what I read elsewhere and I believe I am following etiquette rules.

    I am the mother of a soon to be groom. My husband and I received the wedding invitation in the mail with very little conversation beforehand. It said our sons name on the invitation, of course, but did not say the son of _______________________. I am trying very hard not to be offended. From a mother's perspective a woman wants to at least be acknowledged for all of her hard work and efforts in making her son into the man that he is. A lot of the comments on this post are very helpful, thanks.
