Addressing shower invitations...

would you write
Mrs. Mary Smith
Mrs. John Smith
or
Mary Smith ?

If one invitation goes to more than one woman in a household, how would you write that? I have one woman with her two young daughters, and another woman with a daughter and her mom. Seems wasteful to send three invitations to one house.

How do these look?
Mrs. Mary Smith
Helen and Susan
or
Mrs. Mary Smith and Daughters

With the mom:
Mary & Helen Smith and Mrs. Johns
or
Mrs. Mary Smith
Susan and Mrs. Johns

This gets very confusing. Thanks.

For a mom w/daughters(over 18) I am addressing it as:

Mrs. Mary Smith
Ms. Jane Smith
Ms. Amy Smith
123 Main Street
Town, State 11111


or you could do it like this too:

Mrs. Mary Smith and Jane(daughter)

or

Mrs. Mary Smith
Jane and Amy

I think either way is fine and acceptable.

personally I would send each their own invite....

edited to say: as not to insult anyone...

Personally, I like

Mrs. Mary Smith
Amy and Jane.
