In American English your invitation should read as follows:

You are invited to join

Mr. & Mrs. Larry James Williams

in witnessing the joining of

James Larry Williams (full name)

and

Anna Elizabeth Leary (full name)

in Holy Matrimony (depending on your religion)

weds is OK, it's "Please join us with family" that I'm worried about!
