How do you address children on invitations?

How do you address children on invitations?

I have no inner envelope so it will appear on the outer envelope underneath their parents names.

Im not sure, we have an inner envelope and that is where we are addressing their names.

Maybe you could do:

The Smith Family
123 Main Street
Hicksville NY 11801

Just an idea, I dont know if thats proper

Ok, so maybe that wasnt the best suggestion....

You can just do

Mr. and Mrs. Smith
122 Cherry Hill
New York NY

And then on the response card do:

____ Adults ____ Children

thomas, jane, and ann
address, etc.

generally, childern 18 years or older should get a serperate invite if living at home (not sure why)

and you can arrange them is alphabitaccly (sp) order or age order started with the youngest

The recent question section in MS - Spring had this question posted inside.

Apparently you should not write '...and Family'
Instead you should do as Alex suggested:

Mr. and Mrs. Smith
John, Jane and Jim
123 Main Street
New York, New York 12345

On the outer:

Mr. and Mrs. John Smith

On the inner

John and Mary
Bobby and Jenny
