I am in desperate need of help on my invite wording for the rehearsal dinner. My fiance's mother is finding the place, booking it and doing all the decorating and all that. My fiance's step mother is paying for the actual dinner. These two women cannot stand one another so I really don't want it to look like I'm favoring one or another.
So how do I word the invite to proclaim one of them as host? can I put both sets of parents on there, does that seem like a bit much?
Also, how do I word the invite when it's at a certain place- Geppetto's but it's starting at the ceremony site, Beckenridge Vineyard? Do I list the place we're eating or where the is actuall starting?
I'm so confused on what to do
Any help would be awesome!
Thank you:)

I think including both sets of parents will be fine. As for the place, maybe you could put something like "Join us for dinner at Geppetto's following our rehearsal at the Beckenridge Vineyard."
