It would not be Correct to add his wife s name. However if he is giving you the wedding she will be hostess at the reception. If it is held in her Home she would stand in the receiving line but if it is at a hotel or club she might prefer just to mingle with the guests. Your Mother should not stand in the receiving Ine and will not expect to do so. N fact she May not want to at end the reception or come to the wedding at All. If she does come she might like to sit with other friends of the Bride speak to you after the ceremony then slip away it is never Correct for Divorcee parents to have both their names on a daughter s wedding invitation the Parent with whom she lives is the one to Send the invitations if she does t live with either she has to choose one to do the Job.
