What are the ethics of a wedding?

Care needs to be taken that everyone who receives a "save the date" card is sure to receive a wedding invitation.The wedding invitations usually are issued by the parents who would be paying for the wedding.

Each of them has a role to play and they need to follow certain etiquette.
