Do I spell out the word Apartment when addressing envelopes? And what do I do with apt. number or letter?
For outer envelope, if wife kept her maiden name, then Ms. FirstName MaidenName, and on inner envelope, Ms. MaidenName?
Can I use informal friend's first names on the inner envelopes? instead of Mr. Y or Ms. X?
Also, how many of you received unsigned/unnamed RSVP cards, so that you weren't sure who was coming or not coming? I am leaning against the whole numbering on the back thing (I hate how it looks)...
Thank you so much. Alina

Re: Newlyweds, another invitation question!!!
This is what I did:
I spelled out apartment. ex. Apartment 1A
If she kept her maiden name I wrote that on the outer envelopes. I wanted all my inners to be informal so I used just first names on the inners and sometimes shorten names (like Pat instead of Patricia if I never ever call her Patricia).
I did the numbering system and it was very helpful to me to keep order to my rsvp list and tie it back to my spreadsheet. But I am very anal at stuff like that. I had 2 people not put their name on the line as well and a couple whose hadwriting was difficult to read.

I used a lite pencil number on the inside of the RSVP envelope. No one even knew it was there. It will help if you need to know who sent something back without a name

We received quite a few responses with no names on it.We also never received a lot of responses. I just don't get people.

Just a few was returned with no names and a couple w/o responses saying yes or no. We numbered our response cards as well.

Michelle31, where on the inside of the envelope did you mark them? On the very very inside or on a crease somewhere?
I hate how the numbered RSVP cards turned out, so I erased the #s on the back... Now you guys are making me reconsider
