Inner Envelopes

Inner Envelopes

Did you address your inner envelopes formally or informally:

I'm confused about how to do this. I know etiquette-wise it's supposed to be: Mr. & Mrs. John Smith. The innter-feminist in me, doesn't really like that all that much and would prefer John and Jane Smith.

What did everyone do?

Actually you aren't supposed to use first names on the inner envelope. Just Mr. and Mrs. Smith. That's what I did based on what my calligrapher said. Of course people can do whatever they want. I just went the traditional route. Hope this helps.

Re: Inner Envelopes

IrishBride is correct, just Mr. and Mrs. Smith.

Re: Inner Envelopes

I addressed the inner envelope with

John & Jane

I didn't put last names. I only used last names for the outer envelope. Also, if I invited someone and guest I only put that person's name on the outer envelope and then on the inner I put Jane and Guest.

HTH!
