[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] just got a wedding invitation from my cousin who is getting married for the first time in his 50s. I was addressed as "Mr. and Mrs. (husbands name.)" I am appalled. [/quote] Because that is what current etiquette says is the proper formal address and that is considered courteous to use. [/quote] It's not courteous if the wife never changed her name, and it's not current etiquette because it's not 1950 anymore. [/quote] Dp I guess they didn't want to write out Mr. Bob Loblaw and Mrs. Larlina Pendergast and I don't blame them for a married couple. For Christmas cards it's easier to say Loblaw family but Loblaw-Pendergast family might be better unless nobody hyphenates, would that be a faux pas or acceptable? Loblaw and Pendergast family?[/quote]
