so both parents are paying for the wedding and tradition dictates that the brides parent's name goes first in that case - except we are both brides obviously - so who's name goes first?

Hi Gals-

Have you come up with your solution? If so, what was it?

I suppose you could have chosen something such as:

* Which family is based where you are having the ceremony and may do more informal hosting

* An alphabetical listing

* Drawing straws

* Whichever looks most aesthetically pleasing on the invite

It might not hurt to check in with both sets of parents to see if anyone has any wishes or ideas on that front as well.

HI, I agree with Wedding Crasher's suggestions.. Maybe it would be best if you'd have in alphabetical order..But see to it, that you'll have your basis only into your father's name.. Then pair your parents.

Get what I mean there. Or if it's okay for the both of you, have 2 columns..

here's a sample:

father's name(bride1)father's name #2
mother's name mother's name
