Question

Is it permissible to write the names of the parents of the groom/bride in a wedding invitation? That is, the name of the husband and the wife, such as ’Moshe and Tovah Cohen’? Is there a preference or a Halachic issue to write ’Mr. and Mrs. Moshe Cohen’?

Answer

Greetings and good tidings

There is no problem in writing the woman's name. Some avoid it due to a sense of modesty, but it is not a Halacha.
