Do you have at least a bard or inquisitor in the party for spell support? Without as much as that, I would suggest to reroll right away into an actual caster, unless the whole purpose of the campaign is to play low magic.
The Use Magic Device skill will likely be very helpful here. What class are you playing? What classes do your allies have?
Leadership?
potions of see invisibility, someone with UMD can cast glitterdust, or see invisibility
Spells with a range of personal cannot be made into potions. So no See Invisibility potions.
UMD is the way to go, or take Leadership and spellcaster cohort.
One things for sure, Will is the most overrated save, y'all could probably get away with dumping WIS completely.
Find ruins of a castle that was cleared but no one could unlock the high mage's treasury. Make the rogue in your party take a 20, add a hero point, and the rest of his bonuses so he can unlock it. Take the magic loot you found there, and hopefully you find an item with wishes in it. Wish there was no such thing as magic.
Rinse and Repeat until one of two things happens.
1) You get the wish off.
2) You get so high level from wandering all over the place that literally nothing can kill you, go kill a few gods, rip the mages that pissed you off from their magic, and you win.
Until then, I suggest you do what Mak and Ryn suggested.

The GM should be taking your party's capabilities (and deficiencies) into account while doing encounter design, and using things you can't deal with sparingly.

The only casters in the party is an alchemist and paladin.
Not a fan of Leadership, but may have to talk to the DM about that if it comes to it. I can make do with a fly potion, but worried about invisible creatures, and Deeper Darkness.
Then who needs a full caster?
You have both arcane and divine roles filled. Make sure you have access to NPC clerics and Wizards out-side of combat for certain services like resurrection and teleport.
IMO fullcasters are over rated in PF.

To counter Invisibility use flour, to counter flyers use a bow, to counter deeper darkness use non-magical light and have darkvision.
Deeper darkness lowers the light level by two steps and dispels light spells lower than lvl 4. Torches spread normal light in 20' radius, and is not magic (so cannot be dispelled). Thus a person who has darkvision, is holding a torch, and right in the middle of a Deeper Darkness has a 20' radius of normal, non-supernatural, darkness around him and increases the ambient light level for 20' beyond the darkness spell. If you are wielding a shield you can go for a Shield Sconce so you still have a weapon.
If none of you have darkvision and find yourself in a Deeper Darkness you could try persuading the DM that the burst of light created by Flash Powder is enough to see what squares enemies are in, though you would still get the 50% miss chance for not being able to see when you attacked them.
Both the casters can use Cure Light Wounds, you're fine.
The bold part of this statement is incorrect. If you read the Darkness spell it says this "Nonmagical sources of light, such as torches and lanterns, do not increase the light level in an area of darkness."
so having any kind of normal light scourse doesnt help when faced with Darkness or Deeper Darkness.
One things for sure, Will is the most overrated save, y'all could probably get away with dumping WIS completely.
It really depends on the GM.
