Inquiry: Tourist Visa for Mom to attend my wedding

[rheanick 42]

I would like my mother to attend my wedding here in the US and stay for a couple of months.

What form does my fiance has to prepare as support paper for my mom? Would a wedding invitation counts, or an email from my fiance inviting my mother to come for our wedding?

I'm also aware that support paper from the US does not gives much weight for tourist visa application. But would like to include it in case it would be asked.

My fiance (soon to be husband) would be in business trip this coming March for few weeks in Asia. He does not want me to be alone in our house.

We wish to attend a wedding in the United States. Should we bring a copy of the invitation to the interview?

The applicant may bring it but the officer may not necessarily examine it. The interviewing officer is less concerned with why the applicant is going to the United States than with whether s/he has ties that will bring him/her back.
