Absolutely!!
It is sent to be polite and it shows the grooms family, that you're happy, that he is going to be a part of your family.
Best of luck - Happy Wedding!

I run a Wedding Stationery company and the etiquette generally is that where the Brides parents are hosting the wedding, you should send an invitation to the Grooms parents. However if the Bride and Groom are hosting the wedding, both the Bride and Grooms parents should receive an invitation. Hope this helps :o)

Absolutely. Even though they already know about the event, and they will be there, of course...They may wish to keep the invitation as a keepsake.
Everyone who is going to be at the wedding should be sent an invitation, including the parents, the bridal party, the vendors and the officiant!

Yes, even those that know they are invited, both sets of parents, siblings, grand parents and members of the wedding party should be sent an invitation. If for no other reason than they may want it as a little memento for a scrapbook or the like.

Yes, it's traditional to. It probably feels a bit unnecessary but as you are the hosts of the wedding, anyone who isn't you, the bride, or groom, should be invited. Better to be safe than sorry!
To make it a bit less official, you could always pop a nice personalised note in with the invitation.

It is traditional for the Brides Parents to invite the guests. Therefore i would suggest the grooms parents should be sent an invitation.

Absolutely. Not only does proper etiquette demand it, but they are the most important "guests" along with the bride's parents. Plus, it's a keepsake they'll have of that auspicious day. My Mom sent back the RSVP but I had to give her another one, complete with envelope, so she'd have a complete invitation to keep. And congrats to you and your family. I'm getting married in 12 days, to the most wonderful woman in the world (no offense to your daughter) so I think I might know how you are feeling = ) Best wishes and best of luck!

It is nice to send them an invitation. Obviously they know that they are invited, but it is a good gesture. My husband and I sent invites to both sets of parents just so they could see what they looked like and to include them.

Yes you should. The brides parents invite everyone, so that includes the grooms parents. It will be a nice keepsake more that anything.
