DEAR MISS MANNERS: It looks like my niece will be getting engaged to her companion of several years. ... I would like to invite close family and friends to meet her fiancee and say hi to my niece. ... I would like to word the invitation: “We are pleased to announce our niece, Mia, has recently become engaged to Jordan, a delightful woman from Chicago.
DEAR MISS MANNERS: It looks like my niece will be getting engaged to her companion of several years. They are lovely young women, both college graduates, both with good jobs. They have the support of both families.
I would like to word the invitation: “We are pleased to announce our niece, Mia, has recently become engaged to Jordan, a delightful woman from Chicago. We would like you to join us for dinner on Saturday, March 15 at 6 to see Mia and meet Jordan. Please let me know if you can join us.” Does this sound appropriate? What do I do if people ask about presents? It will be a small wedding out of town, so most of the guests will not be invited.
“Please join us for dinner on March 15th at 6 p.m.” will suffice. Then, at the dinner, give a toast to the happy couple, introduce your prospective niece-in-law, and announce their engagement. As a bonus, this plan will make it far less rude when these same guests are not invited to the wedding.
