Okay, so i have been fiddling with our invite wording, and I'm getting so frustrated!!!  So many different websites are saying totally different things, so i am totally confused as to what the correct etiquette is, what the appropriate wording is, and what should be capitalized and what shouldn't.  Could you ladies check out my rough draft and give me suggestions please?  I'd really appreciate it.  At least we finally found a font we love!!       Thanks!!!

hello~ I may not be much of a help but this is what we did:

"Together with their parents," (or families) rather then along...

and

I didn't put the line in (Two-Thousand)

For time, you could also put "Half past two o'clock.." (Not sure if we put the "at"?)

HTH!

- HMM :)

What font(s) are you using?  That sometimes makes a difference. And I also think it's all a matter of preference. What specifically has you frustrated with your wording?

so i do need to put "honour" instead of "honor"?    i thought that was kind of weird, but it seems to be the norm.       We're using "P22 Corinthia" for our font.  I tired get the invite wording to appear in our font up above, but i couldnt get it to work...

Crane & Co. is always my go-to for stationary etiquette. This is what they suggest: Also note that you can spell honor (honour) either way, according to etiquette, but most people use honour.
