Funny invitation etiquette question

I have a good friend named Lisa who just happens to share the same last name with her boyfriend Scott.  Let's say their last names are both "Smith."  So, on the invite, do I put "Lisa & Scott Smith" or "Lisa Smith & Scott Smith"?  Or something else?

TIA!!

  • Ms. Lisa Smith
    Mr. Scott Smith

    2 lines, no "and" since they're not married. But full names for both of them.
  • Lucky her, she doensn't have to even consider changing her last name.

    Yes 2 lines!

  • also, they should only get a joint invitation if they live together. if they live separately, and you would normally invite them both, regardless of their relationship status, you should send a separate invite to each address. if you would only invite your friend normally, then you just address it to her and leave space for a guest on the rsvp.
