your parents may send handwritten notes or invite guests personally
by telephone, telegram, or Mailgram. Be sure that all information
that would be included on a printed invitation-who's getting
married, where, when, style of the service, locations of the
reception, R.s.v.p. address, and return address (so that guests
know where they may send gifts)-is passed along to guests, however
you should spread the word. If you are telephoning, indicate that
your parents are the sponsors by saying "Mom and Dad wanted you to
be with us....."
