Gay Weddings

To help with some of the activity...

Do we have to address the envelopes formally?  I don't want to do the Mr and Mrs. thing.  We are pretty laid back people and all of our guests know that.  In addition, I'm not writing the addresses our or having it done like the "Hetro" board said I had to.  This is my wedding and I'm going some things how I want!  I never follow all the rules anyways.  I bought clear labels and choosing a pretty front!  PRINTING!!!!!Laughing

    I think you can have it anyway you want it. I think you can address the envelopes with just the names and behind that you could put family behind it.

    Clear labels are perfectly acceptable.  Your addressing of the envelopes should reflect how formal your wedding will be.  If it's not very formal then I wouldn't worry about it.  I haven't decided yet how we're going to do it.

    We clear labeled too, I do what I want. Frankly it was a matter of how would the invitation actually get to out guests. Both my FI and I have horrendous penmanship and hiring a calligrapher was not happening. We addressed our formally so to make up for the labels, I wax sealed them.

    We actually went with Mr. and Mrs. John and Jane Doe as our naming convention because I'm not a fan of leaving the wife's first name off, I'm weird.
