Your wedding invitation wording has to fit the type of wedding you wish to have. Long gone are the days of formal invites. What you have to decide is how you want your invite to be worded. Do you want your parents names placed with yours? Does you or your fiancée family name go first? If the brides parents are paying have her parents' names precede hers followed by the groom’s name. Now you don't have to be formal with your wedding invitation wording. You can simple state both of your names and that you would like to enjoy each guest to welcome in your marriage. Any way for wording works just fine. Thought you could decide that you both want to have your parent's names on the invitation. With that in mind you can have the bride's parents name come first, that they would like to announce the marriage of their daughter. Then place the brides name and who she is marrying after that you can have the groom's parent's names. Though things will be different if you have stepparents the wording for your wedding invitation will have to be thought out. If you place one set of parents then you need to place the all the names on the invite. If only one parent is married, mention them first then the other parents name and finally yours. If both are married mention both of their names. This is a choice you both need to decide on; too many names might confuse people if they don't know your family though at the same leaving a parent off the invite might hurt feelings. Your wedding invitation wording will have balance your wishes and how you want your invite to look. Anything is acceptable right now and it boils down what you and your fiancée want to do.
