Tricky Addressing Invites...Please Help!!

hhiett607

My aunt is widowed and has all of her grown children and their spouses and kids living under one roof. I'm supposed to address it to the household. Do I address it to Mrs. Ruth Brueggeman and Family (matriarch) or to Rev. David Brueggeman and Family (eldest son)??? There are nine people in the house--two married couples, four adults, and one child.

It makes it difficult because they're adults. : Etiquette dictates that each unpartnered adult or married couple gets their own invite. This may not be in the budget, though. If that's the case, I'd address it to the matriarch or whoever supports the household.

That's what I was thinking--it made it the least complicated. Thank you!!!

Each couple should get their own invite.
