Outer envelope:
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Smith

Inner envelope:
In the Martha Stewart etiquette article she wrote that it would depend on how personal you are trying to be and how formal your wedding is...
any are fine...IMO, I would write whatever it is you call them by...I addressed the inners with the 'loving' names I called family and friends (for example my friend's name is Israel and I wrote Isy and Guest...

I put Mr. and Mrs. on the outer for everyone. Anyone who is my generation AND I am close to, I put their first names on the inner envelope. Everyone else was Mr. and Mrs for the inner.
