I don't think you use the Officer title for cops when adressing envelopes. It might be Mr. and Dr. so and so

I agree, no 'officer', but do include the 'Dr.'

Re: Adressing envelope for a cop and a Doctor

It's technically supposed to be:
Doctor Jane Doe
Mr. John Doe

You do not use a title for a police officer

Re: Adressing envelope for a cop and a Doctor

The police officer is a 'Mr.' the Doctor is a Dr.
- So Mr. and Dr. would be appropriate
I'm almost 100% positive 'officer' is not a standard prefix.......

I believe the Dr. goes first, whether it's male or female....so it shoudl say Dr. and Mr. Smith

It is definitely Dr. Sarah last name and Mr. ---Someone said that she thought you put Dr. first regardless of who the doctor is and that's incorrect. The it should be unequivocally clear who the doctor is; the reader should't have to guess! So:

Dear Mr. John Doe and Dr. Jane Smith (if she is suing maiden name) or Dr. Jane Smith (if she uses her married name). Trust me on this.

Sorry but I really think you are incorrect.

The doctor does go first. It should be Doctor Sarah Doe (or Smith) and Mr. John Smith.

TRUST ME.

My invites have already gone out and I have at least three of these in my family. Actually the female doctors and all married to male cops!! I looked at every book and website.

Re: Adressing envelope for a cop and a Doctor

I would address the envelope as Officer ? & Dr. ?. Most P.O.s do not want everyone to know what they do for a living or where they live. Mr. & Mrs.. ? or Mr. & Dr. ? is also fine.

Re: Adressing envelope for a cop and a Doctor

Also - a medical doctor should be spelled out - you arent supposed to use the abreviations Dr.
