addressing invitation for same sex couples

for a same sex couple who live together, do you send one invite w/ both of their names or two invites, one per person?

IF they're a couple i would send 1 to both...I dont see the need to send each one a separate invite

I DEFINITELY say to do one with both names. I would think it would be kinda hurtful sending two different ones as they are a couple regardless ya know?

1 invite with both names is fine. Thats what I'm doing. They will read:

Mr. X and Mr. Z or

Ms. A. and Ms. B

I know... it's just that it's FH's uncle and his SO that live together for 30 years, but I don't know if they are fully out b/c they are kind of old school, you know?

I see where your concern can come from but if they live together you can still put
Mr A and Mr B
Address

If you makes you feel more comfortable put 2 RSVP envelopes in the invite.

i am using this for my aunt & her friend- they just came out and live together also- not everyone in the family knows- but like someone said its going to their private house- so its fine and i think its respectful of their relationship. hth

I addressed the guys as Mr. & Mr. (they were married in April of '04) and the girls are not married (commited) so it read:

Ms. Jane Doe
Ms. Jen Doe
1234 A strret
Anytown, Ny 12345
