We wrote out Apartment on a separate line. Not sure if that's etiquette correct, but it seemed right.

Ok so like this...

Mr. and Mrs John Smith
230 30th Street
Apartment 3A

I did the same too!

In our case, this was what we did and what our calligrapher did based on the high falootin ettiquette books:

If there was a three line invitation the apartment number went on the same line with no word that actually says 'apartment' - that is understood:

Mr. and Mrs. John Smith
123 Main Street 25F
Anytown, USA 12345

HOWEVER

if there were two people invited on one invitation and they arent married, it became 4 lines and the apartment number was set off in the bottom left hand corner of the invitation.

That's how we did it, except I would write out that second New York so it reads 'New York, New York'
