Labels

doeie04 · January 2012

I need to order some return address labels but not sure what I should put on them regarding names.

I need them for before the wedding, but I don't want to have to throw them out after and buy new ones. Would it be okay to put A) Chad and Fawn Johnson or

Johnson or C) Fawn Kendall and Chad Johnson and get new ones later?

Edit: We live together, he technically owns the house, if that matters.

I don't remember if you guys live together. But if you do, I think you should just put your address and no name. If you don't, then use whatever address you are using for everything else (gift registries, responses, etc.) Then they can be used over and over. We ordered a ton of them to use for save the dates and shower thank yous. We put my name and his name and our address. We will order new ones with both of our names for our wedding thank yous and for whatever else.

We live together and ours currently say either M. Denver & A. Mikaniewicz or Denver & Mikaniewicz.

Just put his last name (your new last name). Before the wedding it's still alright because it's his name, and after the wedding they'll still work as it's both your last name.

I'm lucky that FI and I have the same first initial so I'm putting B. LastName on ours (and we live together). So on the invitations it will look like they're coming from him but afterwards we'll use them for the thank you notes and will look like they're coming from either of us.

I just don't see the point in wasting the resources to print two different batches of labels. I can get them for like $3 from VP, but it seems like such a waste. You know?

We live together and everything will be mailed to us so I did our first names on a label with a ring box. They're really cute and will go on invites as well as thank you notes

We have the Future Mr. and Mrs. SoandSo
and then I think we have some that have just our first names.

Did you put last names on there? If so, did you just put his?

myfeverplays · January 2012

I bought a custom stamp. We have lived together for 6 years and wasn't sure what to do. I just did our first names and the address.

Here is a link if you want to see how it looks:

No just Katelyn and Andrew then our address

doeie04 · January 2012

I kind of like the first name idea.... I will see. I am leaning towards just putting Johnson. It covers all the bases.

EmDeVine14 · January 2012

We don't live together and won't until the wedding, but we share a PO Box for all the wedding stuff, so our parents wouldn't be bombarded with a million letters and boxes (and no boxes would be left sitting on the front step). We used both our first and Last names, and we'll just purchase a new one when we move in, since our address is changing from a PO Box in WA to a *hopefully* house in OR.

<div>I did the same thing with just our first names. Those aren't changing any time soon <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-smile.gif" border="0" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /></div>

I did the same as kaitlyn, i just put our first names, both last names are too long & his last name is not mine yet so i can't use it. This way we can still use the labels after.

BrooklynNovia · January 2012

I'm also doing just first names in the same typeface as our invitations.

MMRoberts11 · January 2012

We live together and our labels just say our first names on them so we can use them before and after the wedding.

doeie04 · January 2012

I am starting to love the first name idea! You gals are so smart! :P

browner3 · January 2012

Ditto everyone wth first names. I ordered a stamp a year or two ago when I first discovered VP. It has just our first names. I use it all the time for bills and such. I think I'm going to get a larger stamp for RSVPs though, but with our first names.
