Hello, I could really do with your thoughts: I am in the process of sorting the wording for our wedding invites and currently they read my mum requests the pleasure etc. My Dad passed away over 2 years ago and I have read that some people have their wording to say: Mrs X and the late Mr X requests the pleasure.... I am trying to find ways of incorporating my Dad into the day but at the same time don't want to sound morbid. Can you let me know what you think or if you have any similar experiences? Thanks! x

Not really sure, maybe you could wear a locket with his picture in, and have a framed photo of him on the altar, and maybe someone could say a few words about how proud you dad would have been if he had been there xx

I've recieved an invite with this kind of wording on it. Didn't think anything of it at all when I read it. Think its better than doing a speech and people crying (don't mean to sound insensitive) xxx

My sil's invites read Mr & Mrs... even though hear dad had recently died. It made her feel he was involved that way. Go with what make you feel happiest.
