Envelope wording?

Dannie138

I have a huge family... My mom wants me to invite some of my close cousins. I'm not sure exactly what etiquette is. For instance, she wants me to invite my aunt and uncle-- and their three kids (21, 18 and 15). Do I write seperate invites for the older kids? While the wedding is small, they will be allowed to invite a guest, (Especially since my 18 year old cousin is dating a guy that's related to me on the other side of my family. lol) Thanks!

Anyone over 18 should get their own invitation.  I would put the 15 year old on the aunt and uncle's invite and then send separate invites to the 18 year old with his/her name and the date's name, and another to the 21 year old and his/her date's name.

I'm going to go against "etiquette" if they all live in the same house. A handful of my college cousins are living at home during the summer and I just sent the invite to Mr. and Mrs. Parent on first line and Cousin and Guest on second line. I also gave a quick email/FB and let cousin know that I just sent out invites and just sent one invite to the residence and that she is more than welcome to bring a guest. My family is pretty laid back and so far, no one has lost any sleep regarding this specific situation.
