Bride

In past times, the bride's parents were responsible for hosting the wedding. Therefore, being the hosts, the invitations read - Mr and Mrs ----- parents of (the bride) invite you ......
Times have changed and it is not necessarily the parents hosting weddings anymore, but the couple themselves. I think it would only be courteous to name the bride first, because it is seen as being HER day. Everything is done in her honour, and for once the bridegroom has to take a bit of a back seat. Hopefully it is not a precedent of what is to come.

As the brides parents will be doing the inviting then the brides name goes first. If they are not doing the inviting then you can toss for it who goes first. If you are having these kind of problems already then maybe a review of the plan may be needed.

The Bride's, as the invitation is usually from her parents.

Bride. Usually, it says something like:
Mr. & Mrs Blahblah (brides parents) request the honor of your presence for the wedding of Lulutinkerbelle (bride) and Mr. Hardbody Moresteriods (groom) on the date of wedding at time of wedding.....etc etc.
Nowadays you can do it any way you want to do it, though.

it's etiquette to put the brides name first and the brides father is usually the one paying for the most.
