Invitation Etiquette - Deceased Parents
Filed in archive Wedding Etiquette by Crystal Unrau on March 23, 2007

I recently read an interesting question from a bride who's father had passed away. By proper etiquette, the invitation should then be addressed from the bride's mother and the deceased parent would not be mentioned on the invitation at all. Instead, a honorary place in the program would be appropriate. For this particular bride, that was not good enough. It was important to her that both her mother, her deceased father, and her fiance's parents be listed on the invitation. How would this be done? Well, something like this:
The honor of your presence is requested
At the marriage of
Miss Bride
daughter of Mrs Mom Bride and the late Mr Dad Bride
to
Mr groom

son of Mr and Mrs Parent Groom
