wording for odd family names

shauni27

my aunt and uncle are married but each have kept their own names.  they also have two daughters who are invited to the wedding and each one of them has a diff. last name--one girl has her mother's last name, the other has her father's.  how do i word this on the invite???  it is a pretty casual wedding (ie, doubtful that they would know anything about this etiquette) so could i just put "to the blady blah-bloopidy bloop family"?  

or do i have to do:

mrs. firstname lastname

mr. firstname lastname

daugher1 firstname lastname

daughter2 firstname lastname

Ms. Jane Smith and Mr. John Doe
Sarah and Elizabeth

[QUOTE]<strong>Mrs. First Last</strong> Mr. First Last Daughter1 & Daughter2 (no last names) or The Jones-Smith Family if you really wanted to simplify it. II dont' know if the blah-blah family is etiquette approved though. =)

I don't think it's Mrs because the aunt kept her own name.

Both the "Mrs." and listing the couple on the same line designate married.  You should actually use "Mrs." (I know, my Mom and I have a double last name, "Mother's Maiden-Father's", but my parents have always been married), but of course it is up to the woman if she wishes to go by Ms. Smith instead of Mrs. Smith than that's her choice.
