I know I have a while before our invitations need to be sent out but I am struggling to figure out the proper wording for them. My parents are paying for a very big majority of my wedding. For those of you whose wedding was/will be paid for primarily by their parents, how do you plan/did you word your invitations??? TIA

My parents contribution is paying for about 70% of our wedding and we're paying the rest. I'm also thinking FFIL will offer to pay for the rehearsal dinner, but not entirely sure yet. Our invitations will say "together with their families" at the top before our names and information

My parents are paying for the majority of our wedding. We're covering the extras/things I would feel bad asking my mom to pay for (like a cut out of our dog for the photobooth). We're using the below wording on our invites.
Bride's mother & father
request the pleasure of your company
at the marriage of their daughter
Bride
to
Groom
son of groom's mother & father

My parents are paying for the majority of our wedding (well over 90%; basically everything except wedding party gifts and a few other smaller things). FH's parents are paying for the rehearsal dinner. We used this for our Catholic mass --
Mr. and Mrs. bride's parents
and
Mr. and Mrs. groom's parents
request the honour of your presence
at the Nuptial Mass uniting
Bride
to
Groom
In the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony

Both sets of parents are contributing to the majority of our costs.
We haven't sent invites yet, but I've been looking into the 'wording' and making a draft for when the time comes. We will probably go with:
Mr. and Mrs. Bride's parents along with Mr. and Mrs. Groom's parents
Request the honor of your presence
at the marriage of their children
Bride & Groom
etc.
