Q: Both my and my fiancé's parents are hosting our wedding reception in November. How should our invitations be worded?

A: When the groom's family is co-hosting the wedding with the bride's, the invitation should read as follows:
 

Mr. and Mrs. John Sloan
and
Mr. and Mrs. Jeffrey Smith
request the honour of your presence
at the marriage of their children
Kaitlyn Sloan
and
Thomas Smith
on Saturday, November 27th, 2014
etc.

See our Invitation Wording Examples for handling other situations.
