Hi everyone! I will have 2 instances of this upon writing out invitations...
There is a couple that is unmarried and they do not live together, but it will be assumed that they will be attending the wedding together. However, if it were up to us (as a couple, it's not just me!) we would not invite the female if she was single, but we would invite the male if he were single. (The male is a friend, the female is just his girlfriend who we are not super fond of.)
How should we address the invitation? Outer envelope to Mr. John Smith and inner envelope to Mr. John Smith and guest? The invitations will be sent to the mens' homes. Not sure if we should include the female on one or the other or both? My argument is that they are not married and could be broken up before the wedding, and I would want him to feel free to bring another guest... Thanks in advance!
