bar mitzvah invitation etiquette

My fiance and I have been together for three years and living together for one. We are in the process of planning my son's bar mitzvah. My son's father hasn't had any contact with him for the past four years. Is it okay to say our son on the invitation in place of my son? Also is it okay at th bottom of the invitation to just have our first names?Please help us.
Thank you,Eileen

Dear Eileen,
As you are not yet married to your fiance, the invitation must come from you alone. You cannot obscure the fact that you are not married yet by using only your first names on the invitations. You are the hostess and your name alone is the only one on the invitations.
