address question

My fiance and I have 2 friends in our social circle who just happen to be dating. We are friends equally with both people. They do not live together. If they break up, we would still invite both friends to the wedding. 

Do we send each friend an invitation individually? Do we send an invitation to only one friend and invite the other as part of the couple? If the 2nd answer, how do we decide who we send the invite to? We want to make it clear, without a doubt, that these friends are both invited, regardless of their relationship status.

Ask them what they prefer.

Don't send separate invitations; it irks me when people send me and FI separate invites because we don't live together yet. We are a couple, and should be invited as a unit. Same goes for your friends.

I'd send it to the one who is more established in wear they live or which one you think will be better at handling the invite. It doesn't really matter. You know your friends - which one would like getting the invite more?

In the event that they break up in the 6 to 8 weeks between your invites going out and the wedding, I'd just call both of them up and say that the invitation still stands.

You could just bring it up on conversation, ie. "I was addressing the wedding invitations today.  Where should I send yours?" and then they can tell you what they would prefer.
