CPA's

i guess you could do whatever you want. but i think cpa is pretty much just used on your resume, website, business card. it doesn't carry over into social circles.

even if it's on your business card, it might just be a separate line below your name, not an addendum to your name.

eta - depending on the forum, it can be used as an addendum. for example, on my resume i do write CPA at the end of my name just to stand out a bit from the crowd. the CPA certification would typically be included in the certifications section of the resume, so it's not necessary to have it as an addendum to your name. many cpa's just have it as a separate line below their name:

john jones
certified public accountant
123 main street
new york, ny

I agree you can do whatever you want... but it may not come off well. I think our guests would find it really strange if we put our professional titles after our names on something wedding-related.

But hey, if he really wants it, go for it. It's your wedding. What matters is what you think.

I didn't mean that we would put Michael Smith, CPA.... I wanted to know when you write about your schooling, do you write it there?

i just wrote to that in my eta above.

if they are writing a blurb about you guys then i would mention the cpa.. at least thats what i would do!

but if its to say jane and john are getting married at the RH then i'd leave it out...

OOOOOHHHHH! I get it now! Sorry!!

I have to go see if I have a copy of our newspaper announcement. Ours just said what we do at some point. It said 'Todd is a XXXX graduate of ____ HS and a XXXX graduate of _____ University. He is currently a mechanical engineer for (FIRM) in New York City. Kara is a XXXX graduate of YYYYY, a XXXX Graduate of the University of YYYYY, and a XXXX graduate of YYYY School of Law. She is an attorney for (FIRM) in New York City.'

Something much nicer sounding than that, but it was included.

Sorry for the confusion!
