There are many different ways of inviting your guests and plenty of wedding invitation wordings. Traditionally, it is required to put the host names at the top of the invitation and names of the couple afterwards, however, if you prefer something modern, you may include the names of all parents at the top or none at all, and then write the couple names. For some invitation wordings examples, please see below.
