Religious Invitations
For a slightly less formal wedding invitation, it is usual to omit the hosts' titles such as Mr. and Mrs. Therefore, the invitation would read "Jeremy and Jane Smythe request the pleasure of..." When writing the guests' names on your invitations, you should match the style of the hosts' name, for example, "Jeremy and Jane Smythe request the pleasure of the company of Michael and Jackie Cox..." You would also substitute pm for o'clock.
