Question I am having a party to celebrate my son's wedding after the wedding for my friends. I live in Canada and the wedding is for close family only in NYC. How can I word the invitation. I am remarried but am paying for this party myself. Do I include my very loved husband's name? The real father is still alive and lives in the same city but will not attend. It is for hors d'oeuves, drinks and desserts. The out of town guests will be invited to a formal dinner the night before at a restaurant and breakfast the day after at a restaurant. The bride's mother and her husband will also be invited, but not her biological father. This all sounds a bit hostile but it really is not rather it is what the bride and groom will feel most comfortable with.
Answer I wish I had a simple answer but your dilemma is terribly complicated. Since so many folks have been treated, who will be offended if they miss one more event. Why not just you, your beloved husband and the new couple for dinner. Save money and spend some going to the very, very best restaurant in town.
I hesitate to name one; there are so many. No need for any
custom-written rhyme here. Felicia, rhymeshop@aol.com
