Last week on the blog for Wedding Wednesday, I shared some tips for brides on how to properly address wedding invitations. Most people don’t know the difference on what to put on the outside envelope versus the inside envelop. I shared the most commonly faced situations, but there are so many others to consider.
While I don’t think I could write a post that would include every situation, I will try to address some that come up a lot.
Outside Envelope (alphabetical by last name):
Mr. Alex Parker
Ms. Katherine Smith
Inside Envelope:
Mr. Parker
Ms. Smith
Send to the person you are closest to
Outside Envelope: Ms. Casey Beckman
Inside Envelope:
Ms. Beckman
Mr. Romano
Clergy
Outside Envelope: Pastor Thomas and Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson
Inside Envelope: Pastor & Mrs. Thompson
Judge
Outside Envelope: The Honorable and Mrs. Sally Davis
Inside Envelope: Judge and Mrs. Davis
There are dozens of different situations, but hopefully these will give you a guideline that you can use to figure out those. Just remember, being clear on who is invited and being respectful is what is most important. Well, that and spelling your guests’ names correctly. 🙂
