Offended the in-laws ???

hi all, just wondered what you would make of this situation. we recently sent out our invites with the traditional wording of "brides parents request the pleasure of the company of... blah blah blah" I chose this wording primarily because my dad has no family except his 2 daughters, ( me and my twin sister,) and I wanted to give him (his name) some recognition as I am the last link to his surname/family. I spoke to my H2b and told him to run this by his parents, (his mum is a bit of a funny one sometimes) because i didn't want them to be offended by the wording or the fact that they were being invited by my parents to their own son's wedding, I just liked the traditional wording because my dad is last in his family. however, he clearly hasn't done this, as this morning h2b informed me his mum had asked whether my parents were paying for the wedding. (I think someone must have said to her that if the brides parents are named as hosts it usually means they are paying) H2b explained the reason above and explained that my parents have given us money towards the wedding as it's not a secret or a competition about how much parents have given. it's just my mum and dad are older and quite traditional and had saved the money for mine and my sisters wedding, but I'm just worried i've offended the in laws now.
I should say in laws have paid for our honeymoon so it's not like they've not given anything they have been really generous, which is why i don't want to offend them...
what do you think?

There's not a lot in your post which suggests you've offended them (unless I'm missing something?) sounds
To me that your mil is just curious as to who is paying, especially if she knows you're paying for the wedding she may have just been surprised

I think you're worrying unnecessarily, they haven't said they are upset so I wouldn't worry about it xx

Yes perhaps your MIL is curious as to who is paying for wedding as the wording of your invitation implies that the bride's parents are paying when she knows that isn't the case.

When you are paying with contributions from one set of parents I think the etiquette wording would be 'together with Mrs & Mrs ***' We are paying for our wedding with contributions from both parents so we went for 'together with their parents' so that we have acknowledged both.

It would be nice to thank your in laws for the honeymoon in the speeches perhaps. That would be a nice way of acknowledging their contribution to everyone. Don't get me wrong I'm not an expert in this at all but I do see that perhaps your MIL is curious as to who is hosting the wedding. Weddings do seem to come with politics sometimes

It doesn't sound like you've offended them. Our invites went out a few weeks ago and we put "together with their families... Although I sort of wish I had just put my parents names as OH's dad is now trying to dictate our guest list to us even though our numbers are very restricted and he is contributing nothing to the wedding but stress and hassle.

I think your reasons are valid and it just sounds like your MIL is curious to know how the wedding is funded.

I think it's nothing to get upset about at all and it doesn't sound like she's offended anyway

Thanks guys, I'm probaby being a bit over sensitive about it, (I can't really describe MIL, as like I said she can be a funny one sometimes. But you're right she may just be curious) I have said to H2b that we will mention both parents in the speeches as both have been really generous.
Feel better now
