I'm a married man whose wife didn't take my name
Smith/Jones family would be so annoying to me that I'd rather just not send or receive mail with that label

Same with us. We do Smith-Jones, no first names.

We have three different last names.
DH’s
Mine (my maiden)
DD’s hyphenated (my maiden and my XH’s)
No address labels for us

I used the address stamp almost exclusively for paying bills, taxes and other adult correspondence. I thought it was weird to do "The Smith-Jones Family" as though my professional correspondence were a xmas card. I do ours like this:
Smith -- Jones
123 Happy Lane
The two dashes turn into one long dash. I didn't to it like this "Smith-Jones" because that looks like it's a hyphenated shared last name.

We do
Ariel Smithsonian
Christopher Hannaford
123 Main Street
anywhere, DC 00000
Mainly because our names are too long for one row.

I use Smith + Jones on a return address stamp, but my kid is just Jones and when necessary, we are The Jones Family. In your situation, I'd probably do The Smith-Jones Family.

Our family name situation is similar to yours (I kept my name and the kids have hyphenated names). Before we had kids my mailing label was like this
Larla Jones & Larlo Smith
123 Main Street
After kids and when I wanted a family return address I did this:
Jones-Smith Family
123 Main Street.

I'm planning to order family address labels and/or a stamp because honestly I am too damn lazy to write out my own address every time I mail something. The thing is that I didn't change my name when dh and I got married. How would you format this? EG I am Smith, he is Jones, kids are Smith-Jones.
