How do you

How do you address the envelopes? I have both the inner and outer but what exactly goes on each??

I did the full address on the outer envelope to the person(s) being invited. On the inner envelope I put the individual names of everybody invited : parents & children or friend and SO or name of friend + guest if we allowed that individual a random +1.

Mr and mrs blah blah blah goes on the outer, correct? Do we say and kids here and inside?

I don't know the exact etiquette on this, but here's what I did.

Outer envelope:

Mr. and Mrs. John Smith

and family

Address

Inner:

John and Jane

Bobby and Susie (kids)

I think appropriate etiquette is actually to put Mr. and Mrs.Smith rather than John and Jane on the inner envelope, but I decided that was too formal for our crowd.

For guests with +1, I just used their name on outer envelope (i.e., Mr. John Smith) and on the inner, their name and guest (i.e., John and guest or John and Jane, if I knew the guest's name).

Hope that helps!

I didn't do kids on the outer only on the inner envelope.

Yes you should send invites to the wedding party even though they are obviously (hopefully?) attending!

I didn't send them to the WP because they asked me not to. They told me that they knew when and where the wedding was and there was no need to pay for extra invites and postage for them. But that was their choice. Ask your WP.
