Helpful Hints When Submitting Names and Addresses:
Please submit a typed list of all the names and addresses of your guests (list should be 100% complete at time of submission).
- Use a 14-point font in Times New Roman or Courier. Type your list exactly as you want the names and addresses to appear on the outer and inner envelopes.
- Please use Microsoft Word for creating your list. Please convert Excel spreadsheets to Word document format (label, see below). If you are unable to do this, I can do this for you for a fee of $20.
- Do not use all caps.
- Number you addresses.
- Put the zip code on its own line.
- Do not use initials or abbreviations (except for titles). Spell out first, middle and last names, street names, apartment, place, court, avenue, and states.
- Do not use “&” in place of “and” (for example – do not use Mr. & Mrs. Smith).
- Always include titles (for example: Mr., Mrs., Ms., Miss, Dr., etc.)
- Pelase obtain the correct title for clergy and military guests.
- Professional designations such as Esq., MD, PhD, etc. are not appropriate for wedding stationery. However, a title such as Dr. is appropriate. “Dr.” may be used instead of “Doctor.” “And Family”, “And Guest”, “And Escort” and children’s names do not go on the outer envelope. These phrases and names should appear on inner envelopes in an envelope set. If you have only outer envelopes (no inner envelopes), then it is acceptable.
- “Sr.”, “Jr.” and “III” only appear on the outer envelope after the man’s last name never on the inner envelope.
- Inner envelopes should include a title and last name only (except for invited children younger than 17 in which case on the first name is used). Children older than 18 should receive their own invitiation, even if they are still living at home.
- Use home addresses only.
- I will address your envelopes exactly as you submit them.
- Crane’s Blue Book of Stationery by Stephen L. Feinber is a good resource for other specific questions.
