When addressing the outer envelope do you put St. or do you put Street?
TIA

Re: Envelope wording
When addressing envelopes everything gets spelled out. Mr. and Mrs., Street, Avenue, etc. even the state gets spelled out, no abbreviations. The numbers on the address don't get spelled out. Hope this helps. I'm just going thru this with preparing the list for my daughters wedding.
Sorry, I made a mistake! Mr. and Mrs. is fine. It doesn't have to be spelled out. Sorry for the misinformation.

Re: Envelope wording
Eh...I've heard it slightly different than the above poster. In our invitations, 'Mr.' and 'Mrs.' were not spelled out. However, states and 'Street,' 'Lane,' etc. were. House and apartment numbers are also spelled out. I have heard varying versions of that last point--some say all numbers below 10 are spelled out, some under 100.

I agreed with you on this.... I think Mr. and Mrs. is ok, but I spelled everything else out

They say numbers 10 and under need to be spelled out, so it would be:
