Mr. John & Jane Doe
123 Street
New York, NY 12345
I never liked the idea of dropping the woman's name, when addressing a couple.
Mr.& Mrs. John Doe...I don't like at all!!!
How did/are you ladies handled/handling this
Happy planning
That is a fine way to address inviations but if you do that I believe you must write:
Mr. John & Mrs. Jane Doe
Otherwise you will be addressing the man formally and the woman informally.
For me, I will address differently based on the person. Some people will get a very formal addressing, others will be more informal.
Mr. and Mrs. John and Jane Doe?
I ran into the same problem. I don't think you should include the Mr. title if you have no title for the women.
We used 'John & Jane Doe' for our friends that feel the same way about dropping the women's name (if they had different last names we used Ms. Jane Doe and Mr. John Smith).
My mom (and her friends) prefer the Mr & Mrs. John Doe format, so I left it that way for the older generation.
The other post I wrote was just a guess. But I agree that dropping the Mr. and Mrs. and using both first names and common last name (if they have one) works.
I did indeed address both parties with titles
Mr&Mrs John & Jane Doe, so I guess it is not weird. I guess ones need confirmation sometimes
You ladies are the best
Happy planning
And so do many of my married friends. It is as if the women is not even a person. I am not sure how to handle the situation either. I know that it is proper to put Mr. and Mrs. John Doe, but is Mr. John Doe and Mrs. Barbara Doe
okay? Any advise I would also love.
