besides date and time and place; what else should go on a wedding invite?

The usual invite is worded as follows:
Mr. and Mrs. James Michael Kunkle
request the honour of your presence
at the Wedding Mass at which their daughter
Amy Elizabeth Vadnais
and
Mr. William Michael Pratt
will be united in the Sacrament of Marriage
on Saturday, the eighth of December
Two Thousand and Seven
at five o’clock
Saint Andrew’s Catholic Church
Centreville, Virginia
The reception card looks like this:
Dinner Reception
following the ceremony
Hilton McLean Tyson’s Corner
7920 Jones Branch Drive
McLean, Virginia
There are variations for a church ceremony as opposed to an outdoor ceremony and a ceremony with a mass...it is also different depending on who is hosting the event. These are very general.

most wedding invites are worded something like this
the names of whoever's parents are paying(or paying the most) announce the wedding of thier son/daughter __name__ to __name__ the son/daughter off Mr* mrs. so & so on the date(written out formally) at __location name__ a reception will follow the ceremony at __ location if different from the ceremony__ also an RSVP date and number should be included at the end. if there is any special attire requiremtns,or no gift requests, this should be at the end of the invitation as well. basically, if you think it needs to be known, include it just to be safe

I would recommend visiting a printing store llike Kinkos as they will have not only the information but also some wording samples you can use. If this is your wedding that you writing invitations for, you definitely want to do the job correctly. Good Luck to you!!!

it depends on the style what you have room for . I had a very basic one here it is

request the honour of your presence
at the marriage of their parents,
Jane Lee Brown
to
Jason John Smith
on Sunday,the thirty-first of December
two thousand and six

be sure to include the bride and groom's full names, parents names are optional depending on what you want to do, include RSVP, a separate paper with directions.

Maybe a nice quote on the inner left side and ask them to RSVP.

you can include directions with your invitations even where you are registered but I would sugjest using that for your bridal shower invitations if you are having one
